Preface
The Government of India (GOI) as part of its policy to encourage private sector
participation in the development of airport infrastructure and Government of Karnataka
(GOK) as part of its policy to encourage and provide aviation, industrial development,
tourism, cargo movement has granted its approval for the development of a Greenfield
Airport, with private sector participation at Devanahalli, located about 37 km North of
the city center of Bengaluru.
Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) has been established for the
development, design, financing, construction, completion, maintenance, operation and
management of Kempegowda International Airport (KIA), formerly known as Bengaluru
International Airport (BIA). KIA has been identified as a key project influencing rapid
socio-economic development of the Bengaluru and its region.
BIAL as a joint venture between private and public sectors has Karnataka State Industrial
Investment & Development Corporation Limited (KSIIDC) and Airport Authority of India
(AAI) as public sector partners.
BIAL has entered into a concession agreement with government of India on July 5, 2004
to develop greenfield KIA in accordance with the master plan for carrying out airport
aeronautical and non-aeronautical airport activities & activities reasonably ancillary or
incidental to these activities and the following:
BIAL successfully started Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) operations on May 24,
2008. The total airport area is 4,009 acres (1,622 ha). The initial development included
a passenger terminal building (Terminal T1), a runway, entrance/exit taxiways, rapid
exit taxiways, an isolation bay, an airside road system, access roads, along with other
ancillary developments to cater the 11.40 Million Passengers Per Annum (MPPA).
Subsequently to cater the increasing demand, BIAL has taken Environmental Clearance
(EC) in 2011 to enhance its capacity to handle 17.20 MPPA. The facilities added during
this expansion are expansion of terminal building on east and west side and
modifications, construction of additional apron area on the airside west of existing
apron, construction of new VVIP building on the west side of terminal building,
construction of new energy center, construction of new chiller plant & utilities, kerb
side improvements on airside & landside roads and terminal forecourt improvements. A
150 key hotel was commissioned in December 2015 as part of non-aeronautical
development.
Subsequently to cater the long term increase in passenger demand, BIAL has again
obtained EC in August 2014 to enhance the aeronautical and non -aeronautical
infrastructure. The Aero infrastructure included increase in terminal handling capacity to
55 MPPA and cargo capacity to 1.0 MT. The airside development will include construction
of new passenger terminal along with second runway, taxiways, aprons & aircraft parking,
all aviation facilities and structures etc. Non-aeronautical development consists of
aviation/non-aviation commercial development, hospitality, entertainment, health care,
business park, institutional, recreation & commercial facilities, convention center
including creation of new and expanded road network, drainage, utility provisions,
parking infrastructure along with development of open/green areas, landscape etc. The
Consent for establishment (CFE) from Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB)
was received in August 2015. BIAL has obtained an amendment to the 2014 EC for the
construction of Eastern Connectivity Tunnel (ECT) in December 2018, amended CFE
received in March 2019. The construction of the following projects commenced from 2016
onwards and is planned for completion in a phased manner.
New south airfield development works – including 2nd runway, east cross-field
taxiways & taxiways
T2 Apron - Phase I
Terminal 2 - Phase I
Forecourt roadways & landside development
Aircraft maintenance & airport maintenance
Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) building
Fuel storage & distribution - Phase 1

Expansion of existing hotel
Commercial & hospitality facilities – public fuel station, concert arena.
Meanwhile, passenger traffic continued to grow at a very high rate during 2013 to 2016.
In the year 2015-16, the traffic handled by KIA was 18.9 MPPA and trends indicated that
this passenger traffic growth would continue for the next few years. The terminal 2 (T2)–
phase 1 is scheduled to be operational only by March 2021. Taking into account this
enormous growth rate and T2 phase 1 forecast opening date, BIAL implemented an
interim plan involving process improvements & new technology and some infrastructure
addition to handle additional passenger traffic. Continuous improvement and
augmentation measures are ongoing at teminal-1 (T1) to handle the passenger traffic till
March 2021.
Based on the passenger traffic trends noted over the last few years, BIAL carried out an
aeronautical and non-aeronautical master plan update in 2019. BIAL now proposes to
expand KIA international operations to cater 92 MPPA of passenger traffic and cargo of
1.1 Million Tonnes Per Annum (MPTA) by 2033 along with the required airport activities &
non aeronautical airport activities and supporting ancillary projects required for
International Airport operations. Based on the overall master plan, future extension of
the airport facilities, e.g. airfields, operational areas, landside facilities etc. shall be
developed in stages to facilitate future expansion.

Currently, KIA has a single terminal building which serves both domestic as well as
international passengers. The airport has handled about 386,780 metric tonnes of
cargo in the year 2018-19. As per updated KIA Master Plan, KIA is expected to cater
passenger traffic of 92 million passengers and 1.1 million metric tonnage of cargo
by 2033.
KIA was commissioned in May 2008. The site was selected by Ramanathan
committee, appointed by Government of India. The committee suggested that the
location, south of Devanahalli was best suited for airport development and
accordingly GOI gave its approval for the KIA project at Devanahalli site.
Subsequently, Ministry of Civil Aviation approved setting up of the airport of
international standards at Bengaluru in February 2000.
The airport facilities (constructed during 2005-2008) were designed for air
passenger capacity of 11.40 MPPA and cargo handling capacity of 350,000 Metric
Tonnes Per Annum (MTPA).
The KIA‟s airport expansion program has been initiated in 2011 with expansion of
existing terminal building and associated facilities to enhance the capacity and
operational efficiency of the airport and to increase the passenger handling
capacity from existing 11.40 MPPA to 17.20 MPPA (with flexibility of serving upto
20 MPPA).
During this expansion to 17.20 MPPA the following facilities were added -
expansion of terminal building on east and west side and modifications, additional
apron area on the airside; new VVIP building on the west side of terminal building;
new energy center; new chiller plant and utilities; kerb side improvements on
airside &landside roads; and terminal forecourt improvements. Subsequently
refurbishment of the original terminal building was carried out during the years
2014 and 2015 to meet the look & feel and functionality with the expanded
terminal building. Also, a 150 key hotel facility was commissioned end December
2015 as part of non-aeronautical development.
The Airport expansion further continued (basis the 2014 EC) in order to handle the
forecast passenger and cargo growth. As a part of this EC the aeronautical
expansion works are categorized in four expansion and development phases i.e.
Planning activity level (PAL) 1 to PAL 4. The PAL 1 projects construction
commenced in 2016 and the PAL 4 projects were scheduled for completion by
2030. The PAL 1 expansion activities planned for completion by 2021 involve; New
south airfield development Works (2nd runway / east cross field taxiways &
taxiways), T2 apron - Phase I, terminal 2 - phase I, forecourt roadways & landside
development 1, aircraft maintenance & airport maintenance, airport rescue and
firefighting building, fuel storage & distribution - phase 1, airport & airlines
administration offices, existing runways / taxiway Improvements, utilities - phase
I. The construction of the Eastern Connectivity Tunnel (ECT) has commenced and
the 220/66KV substation is expected to start by 2021.
Meanwhile, passenger traffic continued to growth at very high rate during 2013 to
2016. In the year 2015-16, the traffic handled by KIA was 18.9 MPPA and trends
indicated that this passenger traffic growth would continue for the next few years.
The terminal 2 – phase 1 is scheduled to be operational only by March 2021. Taking
into account this enormous growth rate and T2 phase 1 opening date, BIAL
implemented an interim plan involving process improvements & new technology
and some infrastructure addition to handle additional passenger traffic.
capacity from 17.20 MPPA to 55 MPPA with letter No. F. No. 10-24/2012-IA.III
dated 22nd August 2014. An amendment to the EC was obtained for construction of
eastern connectivity tunnel with letter No. 10-24/2012-IA.III dated 21st December
2018.
BIAL's vision is to develop a world-class airport that will serve as a gateway to the
India, create a hub of activity for the community in Bengaluru and set new
standards for the aviation industry in India. As the proposed project is an
expansion project and is planned within the existing airport site without any new
acquisition of land, alternate site(s) has not been considered.
Two national highways (NH 44 and NH 207) and two state highways (SH 35 and
SH104) pass through the region in addition to broad gauge Railway line from
Bengaluru to Kolar via Devanahalli. The existing NH-44 in this portion has 6-lane
carriageway and the access road to airport is of 4 lanes configuration (currently
being expanded to 10 lanes). The junction on the NH 44 is designed as a Trumpet
interchange.
BIAL plans to initiate next stage of airport expansion, comprising aeronautical area
development such as construction of west cross field taxiways, related taxiways,
terminal 2- phase 2 (20 MPPA) and terminal 3 (20 MPPA), other ancillary and
supporting aeronautical uses along with non-aeronautical area development
including commercial and infrastructure support facilities for the airport to meet
its eventual master plan targets.
The proposed expansion project will be developed within the existing airport
site area. As the site of KIA is well outside the Bengaluru urban agglomeration and
away from ecologically sensitive areas, it is ideally located for planning and
implementing aviation and non-aviation developments on par with international
aviation hubs. The key factors arising from the airport site appraisal are:
The primary land area distribution at KIA and the details of the proposed
additional features to the existing airport facility are as follows:
Around the world, airports have been expanding their facilities to include retail
outlets, office spaces and other commercial developments. Encompassing all these
non-aviation facilities, BIAL aims at setting a benchmark for the development of
future airports in India. KIA Master plan ensures that the size and capacity of the
airport's facilities are in line with passenger traffic forecast and projected cargo
growth. KIA Master plan is prepared in line with International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO) standards and recommendations, International Air Transport
Association (IATA) guidelines and Airport Authority of India (AAI) requirements. KIA
non-aeronautical master plan is developed in line with standards and requirements
of National building code (NBC) and Bangalore International Airport Area Planning
Authority (BIAAPA) zonal regulations.
The proposed terminal (expansion and new), along with additional aprons, west
cross field taxiways and new taxiways, aprons & aircraft parking, all aviation
facilities & structures shall be part of the aeronautical zone and shall be suitably
integrated with existing aeronautical development. The ECT will connect the
terminal to the eastern side of the KIA boundary which in turn is connected to the
eastern part of the city.
This zone is high security area, with restricted entry controlled by Bureau of Civil
Aviation Security (BCAS) and monitored by Central Industrial Security Force (CISF),
with controlled access through specific entrance gates. A large part of this zone
shall be green and reserved as no development zone, as per the height restrictions
and safety conditions required in airside area. Proposed cargo warehouses, cargo
offices, logistics and freight business facilities along with associated trade centers,
administrative offices shall be located in the said part of aeronautical zone. Direct
external road access to the proposed cargo and Maintenance & Repair Overhaul
(MRO) facility area of aeronautical zone of the eastern edge of the site shall be
provided from state highway (SH) - 104 with a link to national highway (NH) 44 &
207.
B. Non – aeronautical
Along with expansion of terminal, airside and other airport facilities and in view of
the growing demand, airport‟s proposed non-aeronautical expansion and
development shall complement overall airport development. The non-aeronautical
development shall include aviation and non-aviation commercial development,
creation of new and expanded road network, drainage, utility provisions, parking
infrastructure along with development of open / green areas, landscape etc. Non-
aeronautical development shall also include uses like hospitality, entertainment,
business Park, institutional, recreation & commercial facilities, convention center,
etc. The proposed non aeronautical development will support and complement the
aviation operations.
1.4 Need for the Project and its Importance to the Country
Today, India is the seventh largest aviation market in the world and at the current
rate of growth, it is expected that the country would be third largest after the
United States and China in 2024 or so. The year 2018-2019 has seen a robust
growth in terms of aircraft movement and passengers handled. The national
growth rate has been 12.1% in respect of aircraft movement, and 11.6% in respect
of overall passenger movement in comparison to the year 2017-2018. Cargo traffic
growth of 6% has been noted during this period.
Bengaluru has experienced rapid growth in passenger volumes and will continue to
realize significant growth over the next 20-year period. Continued robust growth in
the region and broader Indian economy are expected to be the primary drivers of
domestic air travel at Bengaluru. Also, the historical and architecturally rich
cultural heritage of Karnataka, southern India and of the surrounding region of
Bengaluru attracts international visitors throughout the year.
The traffic forecast for KIA is 92 MPPA by 2033. It is therefore essential that airport
expansion is planned and implemented to meet this demand, to serve the
passengers and also the economy.
The ultimate total water requirement by BIAL is 72 MLD (24 MLD portable and 48
MLD non potable) based on the demand forecasts. The source of portable water of
24 MLD is 3.6 MLD from rain water harvesting and 21.4 MLD from Bengaluru Water
Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) supply and that of the non-potable water, 48
MLD is 28 MLD from treated sewage of BIAL and 20 MLD from treated sewage of
BWSSB.
BIAL has already got the confirmation from BWSSB for supply of 9 MLD of fresh
water. At present BIAL is getting 1.1 MLD of potable water and 1.0 MLD of tertiary
treated sewage from BWSSB.
The total power requirement for BIAL is projected to be 299 MVA. The power shall
be supplied by Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL).
Presently well connected sewage collection system exists in BIAL premises which
carry the aero sewage to existing STP of 1.5 MLD (2 MLD of hydraulic load)
extended aeration system. Additionally, 1 MLD (1.5 MLD of hydraulic load) SBR
technology STP has been constructed and is ready for commissioning and 3 MLD of
SBR technology STP is under construction and planned to be commissioned by
December 2019. One 0.35 MLD STP is commissioned in the existing hotel. The
tertiary treated sewage with chlorination is used for HVAC and irrigation. The
future sewage generation is estimated to be 32 MLD. New STP Plants, with
technology to recycle treated sewage (MBR, MBBR, SBR etc.) shall be installed for
sewerage treatment in phase manner as required.
The projects costs for the proposed expansion program beyond the current phase
of implementation are: development of aeronautical, non–aeronautical and
ancillary facilities is estimated at INR 24,167 Crores (aeronautical INR 13,122
Crores and non-aeronautical INR 11,045 Crores).
1.1 Background
In order to keep pace with the rapid development of Bengaluru as India's leader in
information technology, biotechnology and the services industry, Government of
Karnataka and Airports Authority of India initiated the greenfield project. BIAL is a
public limited company under the Indian Companies Act, formed to build, own and
operate the largest greenfield private sector-owned and operated airport in India.
Currently, KIA has a single terminal building which serves both domestic as well as
international passengers. The airport has handled about 386,780 metric tonnes of
cargo in the year 2018-19. As per KIA updated Master plan, KIA is expected to cater
passenger traffic of 92 million and 1.1 million metric tonnage of cargo by 2033.
Devanahalli was best suited for airport development and accordingly GOI gave its
approval for the KIA project at Devanahalli site. Subsequently, Ministry of Civil
Aviation approved in principle for setting up of the airport of international
standards at Bengaluru in February 2000.
The original airport facilities (2005-2008) were designed for air passenger capacity
of 11.40 MPPA and cargo handling capacity of 350,000 MTPA. The facilities then
included a terminal building for both domestic and international passengers, a
runway of about 4000m length, 1 parallel taxiway including 3 rapid exit taxiways,
42 aircraft stands and 8 passenger boarding bridges including 1 double arm
aerobridge, a 4 lane divided main access road, 2 lane undivided secondary access
road and an airside service road, about 2000 car parks, various auxiliary buildings,
a fuel farm, 3 major general / express cargo warehouses and 2 flight kitchens.
The KIA‟s airport expansion program has been initiated in 2011 with expansion of
existing terminal building and associated facilities to enhance the capacity &
operational efficiency of the airport and to increase the passenger handling
capacity from existing 11.40 MPPA to 17.20 MPPA (with flexibility of serving upto
20 MPPA). During this expansion to 17.20 MPPA terminal capacity the following
facilities were added - additional apron area on the airside, new VVIP building on
the west side of terminal building; new energy center; new chiller plant and
utilities; Kerb side improvements on airside, landside and roads; and terminal
forecourt improvements. Subsequently refurbishment of the terminal building was
carried out during the years 2014 and 2015 to meet the look & feel and
functionality with the expansion portion. A 150 key hotel facility was
commissioned end December 2015 as a part of non-aeronautical development.
The KIA airport next stage of expansion program was initiated in 2016 for
construction of - 2nd runway and associated infrastructure, 2nd terminal (T2 Phase
1) and associated facilities to enhance the capacity and operational efficiency of
the airport and to increase the passenger handling capacity to 55 MPPA. The
construction works undertaken as part of this expansion are the New south airfield
development Works (2nd runway, east cross field taxiways and taxiways), T2 Apron
- Phase I, terminal 2 - phase I, forecourt roadways & landside development,
aircraft maintenance & airport maintenance, airport rescue and firefighting
building, fuel storage & distribution - phase 1, airport & airlines administration
offices, existing runways / taxiway Improvements, utilities - phase I (3 MLD STP,
66/11KV substation, rings main, water pipeline, rain water harvesting ponds etc.),
220/66KV substation, expansion of existing hotel and ECT.
Meanwhile, passenger traffic continued to grow at a very high rate during 2013 to
2016. In the year 2015-16, the passenger traffic handled by KIA was 18.90 MPPA
and trends indicated that this passenger traffic growth would continue for the next
few years. The T 2 – phase 1 is scheduled to be operational only by March 2021.
Taking into account this enormous growth rate and T2 phase 1 opening date, BIAL
implemented an interim plan involving process improvements & new technology
and some infrastructure addition to handle additional passenger traffic. Continuous
improvement and augmentation measures are ongoing at T-1 to handle the
passenger traffic till March 2021.
Environmental related clearances received for the existing airport are given below:
2. PROJECT PROFILE/DEVELOPMENT

provided from SH-104 with a link to NH-44 & 948.
Along with expansion of terminal, airside and other airport facilities and in view of
the growing demand, airport‟s non-aeronautical development is being proposed to
complement overall airport development. The non-aeronautical development shall
include aeronautical and non-aeronautical commercial development, creation of
new and expanded road network, drainage, utility provisions, parking
infrastructure along with development of open / green areas, landscape etc. Non-
aeronautical development shall also include uses like business parks, retail dining
and entertainment, convention and exhibition centre, hotels and serviced
apartments, retail dining and entertainment, mixed use development. The
proposed non-aeronautical development will support and complement the aviation
operations.
2.3. Need for the Project and its Importance to the Country
Airports play an eminent role in the economic development of a region, as well as
the nation as a whole. Airports facilitate fast movement of man and materials,
thereby fostering trade and commerce.
Airports offer increased accessibility, which in turn fuels the tourism sector. With
an increase in the number of visitors and airport users, more money flows into the
local economy.
Today, India is the seventh largest aviation market in the world and at the current
rate of growth, it is expected that the country would be third largest after the
United States and China by 2024-25, surpassing United Kingdom. The year 2018-
2019 has seen a robust growth in terms of aircraft movements and passengers
handled. The growth rate has been 12.1% in respect of aircraft movement, and
11.6% in respect of overall passenger movement in comparison to the previous
year. Freight has also seen a significant growth of 6% in total freight traffic during
the same period.
To cater to the rising air traffic, the government of India has been working towards
increasing the number of airports. As of March 2019, India has 103 operational
airports. India has envisaged increasing the number of operational airports to 190-
200 by FY 2040.
Bengaluru has experienced rapid growth in passenger volumes and will continue to
realize significant growth over the 20 year period. Continued robust growth in the
region and broader Indian economy are expected to be the primary drivers of
domestic air travel at Bengaluru. Also, the historical and architecturally rich
cultural heritage of Karnataka, Southern India and of the surrounding region of
Bengaluru attracts international visitors throughout the year. The ruins of Hampi
being a UNESCO world Heritage site, forms major tourist attraction leading to the
development of various organized and unorganized businesses relying on tourism.
Because of the presence of the natural, historical, cultural, contemporary tourism
attractions in the region, Bengaluru becomes the preferred destination/ origin for
various tourism circuits in south India.
Bengaluru is known as the Silicon Valley of India and is a major biotechnology hub
in the country. Many business commentators have stated time and again that
robust and world class international airport facilities for Bengaluru are essential
for its continuing success in both commercial areas and in the tourist industry.
The aviation activity forecasts of annual passengers, air cargo, and ATMs for the
Bengaluru Airport are shown in Table-2.1. Bengaluru has a large population base, a
diverse and a high value added economy to stimulate air travel. It is assumed that
Bengaluru‟s economy will at a minimum, mirror and potentially exceed the
economic growth of India as a whole over the forecast period.
Due to the fast and previously unforeseen growth of air traffic at KIA in the last
few years it was necessary to review the air traffic forecast. The review concluded
that the actual growth was even higher than anticipated in the most optimistic
forecasts from previous efforts. This growth not only requires an expansion of the
airside infrastructure capacity like aprons, taxiways, west field taxiways and also
requires commencement of the terminal 2 – phase 2 construction, a new terminal 3
and other support infrastructure.
The Indian economy is the world‟s 6th largest by nominal GDP and the 3rd largest
by GDP measured by purchasing power parity (PPP). Since 2014 with the exception
of 2017, India‟s economy has been the world‟s fastest-growing major economy,
surpassing China. The service industry is the economy‟s largest sector and accounts
for 57% of GDP, followed by the manufacturing sector (26%), and agriculture sector
(17%). India‟s economy is driven by its position as a top exporter of IT services and
food in the world and is about to have the largest and youngest workforce in the
world.
Indian GDP growth averaged 7.3% per year since 2002 resulting in robust growth in
the middle class. Projections from Moody‟s analytics expect Indian GDP to increase
at an average annual growth rate of 5.9% through 2040. Near term growth will be
particularly robust with rates of about 7% annually.
The Indian aviation industry is one of the fastest growing civil aviation industries in
the world. With the liberalization of the Indian aerospace sector, the industry has
evolved from a predominantly government-owned industry to one with a growing
number of privately-owned airlines, low-cost carriers and international carriers
that have increased flight routes to and from India.
The new large aircraft‟s physical and operational characteristics will dictate the
design of future airports and their facilities. As the characteristics of the aircraft
increase, an airport‟s Airport Regions Conference (ARC) may have to be increased
to the next higher level. The introduction of New Large Aircraft (NLA), for many
airports, will involve significant modifications to accommodate the size and weight
of the new aircraft. Introduction of NLA will significantly affect the design of
airport including airside and landside development.
a greater opportunity for KIA to reinforce and guide land use patterns already
emerging around the airport and help to develop this part of Bengaluru as an
important epicenter of the region.
The planning for KIA shall provide location, size and intensity of use of primary
airport and aviation related land uses like airside, cargo, landside, aviation and
non-aviation commercial, utilities, facilities and social infrastructure, open space
and transport facilities. Additionally, several aviation infrastructure projects have
been identified as part of proposed airport cityside development like elevated/at-
grade metro & underground suburban train link to Bengaluru city centre, expansion
of existing internal and external roads, multi-level car parks, additional utilities,
convention centre, etc. The airport landside development is intended to extend its
benefits and serve the public interest for the airport region, in addition to the
global trade, tourism and travel destination that KIA aspires to become. The
proposed planning of the airport is based on the airport‟s overall functional
characteristics and projected traffic growth at KIA.
The current employment ratio at BIAL for the aeronautical area is 630 employees
per 1 MPPA of terminal design capacity. Based on this, the workforce requirement
is expected to be around 60,000 for an ultimate terminal design capacity of 92
MPPA.
The expansion of KIA will have a pronounced imprint on the local and regional
economy. The above forecast confirms the importance of KIA as an employer in the
region and Karnataka state and is expected to infuse regional development and
economic growth of the region. There is likely to be a large manpower for skilled
personnel to helm with the growth at KIA.
3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The said project is an expansion project. BIAL is proceeding with planning & then
implementation of next phase of airport expansion by construction of taxiways &
West cross field taxiways, apron, Terminal 2 (T2)- Phase 2 and Terminal 3 (T3) and
non-aeronautical development including commercial and support facilities for
them. Main objective of the expansion project is to meet the ultimate phase of 92
MPPA and 1.1 MTPA cargo along with supporting infrastructure required for the
world class airport operation.
3.2 Location
The proposed expansion project will be developed within the existing airport site
area. KIA is located 4 km south of Devanahalli and is 37 km away from the central
business district of Bengaluru. As the site of KIA is well outside the Bengaluru
Urban Agglomeration and away from ecologically sensitive areas, it is ideally
located for planning and implementing aviation and non-aviation developments on
par with international aviation hubs. The key factors arising from the airport site
appraisal are:
KIA falls in Survey of India Toposheet No. 57 G/11, G/12, G/15 and G/16. The
location map and 10 km radius study area map are given in Figure-3.1 and Figure-
3.2 respectively.
Since the proposed project is an expansion project and is planned at the existing
airport site without any new acquisition of land, alternate site(s) has not been
considered.
In view of growing demand, BIAL intends to proceed with next phase of expansion
of airport development and support facilities by the construction of terminal 2
(T2)-phase 2, associated apron, MRO, cargo terminals, new terminal 3 (T3) and
related aprons, non-aeronautical (city side) development including commercial and
support facilities for them. The cost of additional proposed development and
facilities is estimated at INR 24,167 Crores (aeronautical INR 13,122 Crores and
non-aeronautical INR 11,045 Crores).
The primary land distribution at KIA is given in Table-3.1 and the details of the
proposed associated additional features to the existing airport facility are given in
Table-3.4.

For each PAL, the facilities required at KIA are assessed in the revised master plan
and summarized in the later section.
Total ATMs (in „000s) 240k 326k 468k 575k 575k (+)
KIA aeronautical zone is spread over on total site area of 3254 Acres (1317 Ha.)
accounting for 81% of total area of KIA. Aeronautical zone provides all required
aviation operational infrastructure to enable ultimate passenger capacity of
approximately 92 million and 1.1 million tonnes of ultimate cargo handling per
year.
Proposed aeronautical zone shall be inclusive of, but not limited to; taxiways,
aprons, terminals (inclusive of all required uses, sub uses within it including retail
& commercial inside terminals), hangars, security offices & installations, fire
stations, water storage & pumping facilities, power sub stations, STP‟s, offices
(radar, ATC, airline, airport, IT, banks, etc), NAVAIDs, aircraft maintenance
workshops, mechanical workshops, vehicle maintenance workshops, GSD & GSE-
ground service depots, ULD parking, vehicle parking, internal roads, security gates,
airline support Offices & warehouses, transport workshops, staff canteens &
kitchens, cargo terminals, offices & warehouses, VIP lounges, MET offices, aircraft
maintenance, MRO & other related uses, etc. Master plan showing the overall
layout and the airside details are shown in Figure-3.4 and Figure-3.7.

a) Airfield
Currently, KIA operates a single runway (09-27) for both arrivals and departures,
which is referred to as mixed mode operations. The operational improvements
implemented in October 2018 are expected to increase the maximum hourly
airfield capacity in mixed mode operations to 40 ATMs/hour.
In previous master plan dating back to 2011 has identified the need for substantial
airfield improvements including the introduction of the second runway (NSPR),
additional parallel taxiways to the existing and new runways, cross field taxiways,
and additional taxiways/taxi lanes to support new terminal development. These
facilities are currently in the implementation phase. Hence in the revised Master
Plan update 2019, the airfield requirements and capacity were assessed
considering the following;
Single runway in mixed mode operation (capacity is approx. 45 ATMs per hour
and 263,000 ATMs per annum)
Dual runway in segregated mode operation (arrivals on one runway and
departures on the other – capacity is approx.81 ATMs per hour and 465,000
ATMs per annum)
Dual runway in a mixed mode operation (capacity is approx. 90 ATMs per hour
and 575,000 ATMs per annum)
The first phase of the airfield improvements i.e., addition of second runway (SPR)
along with the related taxiways is scheduled to be completed by end of December
2019. Scheduled rehabilitation of the existing runway will commence once the
second runway is operational. Therefore, the airport will continue to operate with
a single runway until both runways are available by end 2020. By 2026, mixed
mode operations on both runways will be required, which will be capable of
accommodating the forecast demand until 2030. Beyond 2030, possibly upto 2033,
forecast capacity could also be achieved through;
But such measures are outside the parameters of the revised forecast but could be
implemented to achieve demand levels greater than 575,000 ATMs with potential
to accommodate up to 92 MPPA, generally corresponding to a 2033 annual
passenger demand level. As such, to balance the overall two runway airport system
at the Airport, the revised Master plan has evaluated the ability of the planned
airfield to accommodate the increasing demand and identified the requirements
that would improve airfield performance and efficiency. The other facilities
requirements at the airport including the terminal, and various support facilities
are also assessed to meet up to approx. 575,000 (+) ATMs, or 92 MPPA by
approximately 2033.
b) Terminal
Terminal development is of utmost importance as it is the „front door‟ to the city
and most important experience for passengers using the airport. The terminal
complex also needs to facilitate the connection of origin and destination
passengers with their aircraft and facilitate fast and efficient transfer operations.
There are three levels that provide a high-quality experience for passengers,
airlines users and other airport users:
The main criteria in terminal design are to provide flexibility that can respond to
possible changes in strategic direction, demand, market and airline allocation. The
proposed terminal allocation is that all common use international operations will
move to Terminal 2 (T2) and Terminal 1 (T1) will be a domestic terminal only.
There will also be domestic operations in T2.
The existing terminal 1 design capacity is 27 MPPA and the terminal 2 -Phase 1 is
scheduled to be completed by end of March 2021 which will accommodate 25 MPPA
and terminal 2 -phase 2 with a capacity of 20 MPPA is forecast to be required by
2025. In addition, terminal 3 (T3) also has been identified as requirement to
handle long term demand when T2 reaches its ultimate capacity of 45 MPPA. This
is expected to occur around 2028. Terminal 3(T3) is foreseen to be as a domestic
only terminal that will cater for 15 – 20 MPPA domestic traffic displaced from T2 as
international traffic grows and for continuing domestic growth in the post 2028
period. The combined capacity of all three terminals will be approximately 92
MPPA and this is adequate to accommodate PAL 4 FY 2033 demand.
Landside Access
Two National Highways (NH-44 and NH-207) and State Highway SH-104 pass through
the region in addition to a broad-gauge Railway line from Bengaluru to Kolar via.
Devanahalli and Chikballapur.
The existing road network around KIA is shown in Figure 3.8. Currently, the NH-44
is the single major arterial providing access to the traffic bound to KIA. The
existing NH-44 in this portion has 6-lane carriageway (with 2 lane service roads on
both sides) and the access road to airport is of eight lanes configurations and
tapering to five lanes in each direction beyond the trumpet. Currently this road
expansion work is under progress.
The outer semi-direct ramp of the interchange gives access to traffic from
Bengaluru city destined to the airport forming the major inflow component of
airport traffic. The inner exit loop serves traffic leaving the airport going towards
the northern side (towards Devanahalli and Hyderabad). The diagonal ramps of the
trumpet serve as exit to traffic leaving the airport towards Bengaluru city and
entry to traffic from Northern side into the airport. The railway track from
Bengaluru to Kolar runs alongside the NH-44 at this location.
An alternate access to the airport was provided with the opening of the south west
connectivity opened to the traffic in March 2018. This south west connectivity
connects to both NH 44 and SH 104.
Landside access facilities include the airport access road addressed as Main Access
Road (MAR) which is a two lane dual carriageway road (under upgradation to
five lane dual carriageway), other terminal area roadways including South and
North Secondary Access Road (SSAR &NSAR) and kerb side roadways; Apart from
the road network, public and employee parkings, bus station, and taxicab holding
areas also are the transport facilities presently available and under development at
KIA.
At present the Main Access Road (MAR) is the only access to the terminal from NH
44 intersection. All passenger related traffic uses this road to access the terminal.
The MAR would be at grade, except for a section that would go below grade to
allow for a future western crossfield taxiway. However, to improve the capacity,
the west roundabout and east roundabout would be removed and connecting roads
be segregated from the main access road. All airport service-related traffic
(cargo, maintenance, etc.) uses the landside service road or secondary access
road.
In the forecourt area the 4 lane access road splits into two 2-lane single direction
road, one leading to the terminal 1 kerbs and the other leading to the parking
areas and the hotel. The kerb roads are divided into an inner and outer kerbs (3
lane each), the inner kerb is used for pickup by airport taxis & VIPs/VVIPs and the
outer kerb is used for drop off by taxis and private vehicles and pickup by private
vehicle only. Both kerbs together have a total length of approximately 400 m.
5. Kerbside Facilities
At T1, there are three drop off kerbs (Inner kerb of 110m, centre kerb of 130m and
outer kerb of 135m) and two pick up kerbs (inner kerb of 115 m and outer kerb of
130 m). In addition, to these kerbs, auxiliary kerbs are provided for other
transportation services, mainly app-based taxi pick up (Ola of 120 m and Uber of
80 m) as well as bus kerb which has 14 bays.
Similarly, T2 will have three parallel kerbs, inner, centre and outer used for VIP
vehicles, taxis and private vehicles.
7. Public Parking
Currently the passenger parking demand is accommodated at four surface parking
lots of approx. 2000 slots which includes both premium and budget parking facility.
BIAL has also planned to develop a Multi-level parking (MLCP) of approx. 2000
spaces as a part of the transport hub to cater to T 2 demand. However, to handle
long term demand beyond FY 2028, the revised Master plan has envisioned to
convert all surface parking to MLCPs.
In addition to the taxi line up at kerbs, a remote taxi staging of approx. 1600
spaces is planned for taxicabs to await before dispatching to the terminal pick up
kerb. This facility is a centralized facility and planned beside existing CISF barrack
as shown in the below. Currently this parking lot is under construction.
A new truck parking centre is under implementation for 300 trucks on the north
SAR near the proposed west cross field location to cater the cargo parking demand.
As per the proposed development the entire cargo facilities along with the support
infrastructure is planned to be shifted to the eastern side of the east cross field
taxi way. This will ensure the cargo traffic will not get mixed up with the
passenger traffic and dedicated road access from the eastern side is available for
the cargo traffic.
Flight catering
The existing catering building seems sufficient to serve the anticipated demand up
until 2021, where after additional flight catering facilities will be required to meet
the long-term need. BIAL management, based on their commercial strategy, then
have the opportunity to consider an alternative location, be it on-airport or off
airport.
The existing cargo facilities are proposed to be shifted into bigger cargo facilities
planned on the eastern part of the airport in the KIA master plan considering the
following points:
In the future more aircraft stands will be concentrated in the eastern part due
to the future terminal layout which will make the airside roads more
congested due to tugging of cargo from the terminal at the present location to
the aircraft stands for loading
The proposed eastern area will completely segregate the cargo functions from
the air passengers and major part of the cityside development but still
reducing distance to the aircraft stands from the cargo processing
areas/warehouses
The landside cargo traffic will be completely segregated and will have an
alternate access through NH-948 or SH-104 which is planned to be widened to
cater to the future development thus decongesting NH-44.
The proposed Air cargo facilities, based on the high productivity scenario will be
approximately 65,050 sqm built up of air cargo warehouse space and an overall
24.00 Ha site, excluding Apron area, enough to accommodate truck, trailer, and
logistics cargo vehicle parking and maneuvering, employee parking, and freight
forwarders. The cargo apron will be approximately 9.0 ha.
Airport Maintenance
Airport maintenance areas provide parking, garaging and line maintenance
facilities (including related offices) for all vehicles associated with the routing
maintenance of the Airport including airside pavements and terminal areas.
Approximately 6.1 hectares of land area is required for airport maintenance.
Fuel Storage
Existing fuel storage facilities are located on a 4.5 hectare site on the west side of
the Airport, to the southwest of the Runway 9 threshold, and is equipped with four
storage tanks of 3,300 KL each above-ground tanks. There are an additional two
3,300 KL tanks currently under construction, as the facility can only accommodate
an average of 3-day‟s storage. There will be ten tanks by the end of the contract
period.
The existing fuel farm for storage facilities and parking is sufficient to handle FY
2033 demand.
General Aviation
There are currently no dedicated facilities serving general aviation activity at the
Airport. General aviation aircraft operators use the aircraft parking apron
adjacent to T1 and selected dignitaries use the VVIP facilities (e.g. lounges and
amenities) adjacent to the passenger terminal as appropriate. Hence the site area
of approx. 7000 sqm is reserved for future general aviation facilities at ultimate
phase in the revised Master plan.
The overall total non-aeronautical zone is proposed on 305 Ha (755 Acres) of KIA
site area. The said non-aeronautical zone/non-airport zone area comprises of:
Airport City
Non-aeronautical area development shall be a green Airport City, environmentally
compatible and resource efficient throughout its life-cycle with an objective to
reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the
natural environment by:
Airport City will house building and Infrastructure having sustainable design and
green architecture. It will meet the needs of present generations without
compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. It will have
many benefits including environmental, economic, and social benefits. The Airport
City will be developed with energy efficient and environmentally friendly planning,
design and construction practices.
Proposed transportation network shall include the world class metro and suburban
stations and development on areas adjoining it to provide seamless, obstacle free
transport connectivity to the Airport City and the region, integrated with surface
transport nodes and parking areas. This land use category will include uses like all
roads, and parking areas, Metro stations, PRT, bus stops (for airport express buses/
shuttle buses), car parks for terminal parking (for passengers), taxi staging, MLCPs
for cityside users, pedestrian walkways, under passes and skywalks, etc.
The principal airport level green space/ open area in the form of central linear
green is located along the airport access road. Secondary open areas shall be
planned in various locations in different land use zones. The total area under this
zone shall be approximately 44.6 ha (108 acres).
Bird Menace - Trees attract insects and birds which have potential to cause
maximum damage to aircraft. This requires a careful restricted selection of trees
to be planted on an airport premise, as a part of airport safety measures.
• The percentage of the green area development in terms of the overall airport
development Area [4009 acres] is about 31 % including turfed area on the airside
between the runway, taxiway and apron.

The total water demand for KIA is estimated to be 71.70 MLD, inclusive of both
aeronautical & non- aeronautical uses. Aeronautical use water demand is projected
to be 24.6 MLD, while water demand from non-aeronautical uses is estimated to be
47.09 MLD. The potable water requirement for aeronautical is 8.70 MLD and for
non-aeronautical is 15.05 MLD. The total potable water requirement is
approximately 23.75 MLD. The rest of the water demand for non-potable use will
be met from treated sewage of BIAL and BWSSB.
BIAL has already got the confirmation from BWSSB for supply of 9 MLD of potable
water. At present BIAL is getting 1.1 MLD of potable water and 1.0 MLD of tertiary
treated sewage from BWSSB.
The current power sanctioned load is 15 MVA and current utilization is 12 MVA.
With the commissioning of T2 phase 1 along with all associated facilities in 2021
the power utilization is estimated to be 33 MVA. The current power requirement as
well as the power requirement in 2021 will be met by KPTCL. Agreements for the
same are in place with KPTCL. The current backup power supply available for the
airport is 15.45 MVA. By 2021 the backup power supply available will be 30 MVA.
Further back up power supply augmentation of additional 30 MVA is estimated by
2033 for aeronautical zone.

Presently well connected sewage collection system exists in KIA premises which
carry the aero sewage to existing STP of 1.5 MLD extended aeration (2 MLD of
hydraulic load) system. Additionally, 1 MLD (1.5 MLD hydraulic load) SBR
technology STP has been constructed and is ready for commissioning. A 3 MLD SBR
technology STP is under construction and planned to be commissioned by
December 2019. One 0.35 MLD STP is commissioned in the existing hotel. The
tertiary treated sewage with chlorination is used for HVAC make up and irrigation.
Once the terminal 2 (T2) phase 1 is completed in 2021, tertiary treated water will
be used for toilet flushing.
The future sewage generation is estimated to be 32 MLD. New STP Plants, with
latest technology (MBR, MBBR, SBR etc.) to recycle treated sewage shall be
installed for sewerage treatment in a phased manner. The tertiary treated sewage
shall be used for HVAC make up, irrigation and toilet flushing. This will help BIAL in
reducing demand for fresh water.
The total tertiary treated water demand at KIA is 48 MLD. The tertiary treated
water available from BIAL STP is 28.00 MLD. The balance tertiary treated water
will be sourced from external supply.
The drainage system on the airside is designed to cater for 100 year return period
discharge and the landside access roadway drain network cater for 10 year return
period discharge.
The storm water runoff generated from airside areas, paved surfaces like runway,
apron, taxiways, is collected through extensive network of pipe / RCC / open
channels / storm water drains and conveyed through oil water separator units in
order to discharge oil free water into rainwater storage pond.
All the storm water arising / passing out of apron is treated with oil water
separator as per standards. The oil waste collected shall be disposed as per
standards stipulated by authorities. No wastewater will be discharged outside the
airport complex without pre-treatment.
The runoff from the roof of terminals and ancillary buildings shall be collected in
underground (UG) sump tanks & rain water harvesting ponds and shall be used for
potable use after treatment. The overflow from RWH ponds / recharging wells will
be taken and discharged to an external nala / drain nearby.
The storm water shall be captured in the open rainwater harvesting ponds
identified within the airside & landside areas and recharge wells provided along
the periphery. The harvesting ponds shall serve two purposes, i.e. as storage pond
as well as ground water recharge pond and helps in storm water management. The
overflow from RWH ponds / recharging wells will be taken and discharged to an
external nala / drain nearby.
The landside roadway drain network are with RCC drains covered with perforated
cover slabs with adequate size openings at regular interval to facilitate for routine
maintenance. The roadway drains are planned as per MoRTH specifications.
As per KIA master plan data a total length of 52,460 m. of storm water drains
planned for airside and 76,690 m. of storm water drains planned for land side.
Presently two types of rain water harvesting wells are constructed in KIA
complex viz., recharge bore wells and recharge pits with bore wells. Recharge bore
wells consists of a vertical shaft of 200 mm diameter penetrating to 10 m depth
from ground level. They are filled with 40 mm angular aggregates. These recharge
bore wells are constructed at an interval of 30 m all along the storm water drains.
Recharge pits with bore wells are basically pits having an upper diameter of 1.8 m
and a depth of 1.75 m. In addition to this, a vertical shaft of 200 mm diameter
penetrating to 10 m depth from ground level is constructed. They are filled with
1.5 mm to 2 mm sand layer for a depth of 450 mm. It is followed by a 300 mm
layer of gravel. A 250 mm thick layer of boulders forms a final layer. A combination
of 274 RWH-1 type wells and 41 RWH-2 type wells are constructed all along the
BIAL complex.
The total area of BIAL is 1,622 Ha and about 94 % of land area is available for
harnessing the rain water. The runoff generated from the 6 drainage catchment
areas for Bad monsoon: 18,08,084 Cum./year & for average monsoon: 48,43,682
Cum./year.
Ten locations have been identified for storing the rainwater. The RWH ponds of
varying capacities are spread over at different locations. The total storage volume
is about 13,00,000 Cum is planned, 4 nos of RWHPs of storage capacity 10,50,000
Cum are in the construction stage . Additional 3 nos of RWHP will be taken up for
construction shortly.
The wastewater generation mainly consists of sanitary waste, sewage from airport
terminal, flight kitchen, effluent from the workshop etc. The sewage and sanitary
waste from the buildings and airport terminal is treated in STP comprising primary,
secondary and tertiary treatment facilities. The treated wastewater from the STP
is used for HVAC make-up and green space development.
Due to the adequate sewage and wastewater treatment facilities and re-use
schemes during the operation of existing airport, no wastewater is discharged
outside the airport premises. The proposed STP flow diagram is shown below.
Solid waste generated from the airport area comprises of S T P sludge, food
waste, garbage, waste oil from STP and workshops, bio medical, hazardous wastes
etc. The details of existing solid waste generation are given below.

constructed in phased manner. Phase 1 with a capacity of 25 ton per day is
expected to be commissioned by December 2020. The present solid waste
generation at BIAL is about 24 ton/day.
Currently piped natural gas is not used in the airport. PNG is planned to use for
heating and cooking. In the ultimate phase of development approx. 13,500 kg of
PNG per day is expected to be consumed.
4. SITE ANALYSIS
Two National Highways (NH 44 and NH 207) and two state Highways (SH 35 and
SH104) pass through the region in addition to broad gauge Railway line from
Bengaluru to Kolar via Devanahalli.
The existing road network around KIA is shown in Figure 3.8. Currently, the
national highway no 44 is the single major arterial providing access to the traffic
bound to KIA. The existing NH-44 in this portion has 6-lane carriageway and the
access road to airport is of 4 lanes configuration. The junction on the NH 44 is
designed as a Trumpet interchange.
The outer semi-direct ramp of the interchange gives access to traffic from
Bengaluru city destined to the airport forming the major inflow component of
airport traffic. The inner exit loop serves traffic leaving the airport going towards
the northern side (towards Devanahalli and Hyderabad). The diagonal ramps of the
trumpet serve as exit to traffic leaving the airport towards Bengaluru city and
entry to traffic from Northern side into the airport.
A single line Railway track from Bangalore to Kolar via Devenahalli and
Chikkaballapur runs alongside the NH 44 at this location.
through Bettakote running close to the airport boundary on the east. This road
is proposed as the future road to the proposed cargo terminal on the east
and link to proposed ECT providing connection to terminal forecourt. This
road meets another MDR between Budigere and Singahalli which further
connects to the SH 104. ROW of 40 m is available.
5. Link road between SH104 and Budigere through Singanahalli(Link-2)- - This
MDR connects Budigere to Bande Kodigehalli on SH104 linking to the KRDCL
road at Ramanahalli. The Aerospace SEZ and IT/Hardware parks are proposed
on either sides of this road. ROW of 20 m is available.
6. Link road between NH-44 Bagalur and Budigere (Link-3) - This two lane
road starts from Budigere cross near Yelahanka Airforce station passes through
Bagaluru meeting SH104 and runs further east through Yadiyuru, Maralakunte
villages and ends at Budigere.
Land form for proposed project site is plain, accommodating parallel independent
runways for simultaneous and independent operations with a provision of full-
l e n g t h taxiway on either side of the runways. The airport site is large enough
to develop a two runway system.

Total land for the proposed project site is leased to BIAL. Survey numbers of the
BIAL project area are enclosed as Annexure I.
4.3 Topography
Topography of the 10 km radial study area is observed that an almost straight ridge
line passes through Nandi hill and Bengaluru west. This divides the study area into
two catchment areas for rivers on either side. The western part of the area is the
basin for Arkavathi river and eastern part of the area is basin for Ponnaiyar river
(Dakshina Pinakini river). Due to the special topography of the area, number of
tanks (called „Kere‟) form in the rainy season. These tanks are one of the sources
of water for irrigation and for recharging groundwater. Hoskote Kere and Badna
Kere are two main tanks, which are almost perennial. The Ponnaiyar river passes
through these two tanks.
The texture of soil is mostly sandy clayey in the study area. The common color of
the soil ranged from brown to brownish black. pH of the soil ranges from 7.0 to 7.6
indicating that the soils are usually alkaline in nature.
The nitrogen value ranges between 60.6-122.9 kg/ha g indicating that the soils are
categorized as less to good quantity of nitrogen.
The phosphorus values ranged between 48.2 to 98.1 Kg/ha indicating that the soils
have medium to more than sufficient quantity of phosphorus.
The potassium values range between 75.3– 218.2 kg/ha indicating that the soil has
very less to medium quantity of potassium.
The existing social infrastructure in the s tudy area includes the following
and will further be strengthened (as required):
Hospitals with ambulances
Banks
Post offices
Railway stations
Bus stations
Fire stations
Secondary schools
Police stations
Shopping complexes
Sports infrastructure (Stadium & Camps etc);
Self help groups
Community halls
Cinema halls; and
Primary health care centres.
5 PLANNING
The aim of KIA is to meet the need of air travel in southern India, as its main
airport serving the region. KIA, India's first green field airport, has been envisioned
as an aviation business and travel hub for South India. In keeping with this, BIAL
plans are designed to provide facilities and services to all passengers by expanding
required infrastructure.
Around the world, airports have been expanding their facilities to include
retail outlets, office spaces and other commercial developments. Encompassing all
these non-aviation facilities and beyond, BIAL aims at setting a benchmark for the
development of future airports in India. KIA master plan ensures that the size and
capacity of the airport's facilities are in line with passenger traffic forecast and
projected cargo growth. The projects identified for implementation in the revised
Master plan for proposed aeronautical zone by 2033.
KIA Master Plan is prepared in line with current ICAO standards and
recommendations, IATA guidelines and AAI requirements.
Proposed KIA expansion and development would meet aviation demand, community
acceptance, and environmental compatibility and harmonize with other modes of
local, state and national transportation. The development will define the type and
extent of proposed activities necessary for the airport to meet projected aviation
demand. The airport plan conceptualizes the long-term development required at
KIA.
The proposed development concept for KIA is for the period of 15 to 20 year. Its
focus is on the future aeronautical & non-aeronautical development and on
aviation activity forecasts, to cater for future aviation growth. To cater for this
growth, the proposed development includes development concepts for:
The airfield
Terminal and passenger systems
Freight facilities
Aviation support facilities and utilities
Landside access and
Non-aeronautical (Commercial) development
As per 2011 census, the study area of 10 km radial distance from the periphery of the
project boundary consists of a total population of 2,36,776. The distribution of
population in the study area is given in Table-5.1.
The proposed expansion project would create many job opportunities for the local
people. There will be influx of people from other districts because of which socio
economic changes are expected to take place within 4 - 5 km from the airport.
The proposed land use plan reflects the highest and best uses of land based on a
careful balancing of operational, environmental and commercial requirements. The
land use strategy has been formulated taking into account several salient factors,
viz.
Existing & contextual development
Future growth potential of Bengaluru region
Infrastructural scenario and connectivity
Market potential
Urban development
Land usage and phasing

6. PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE
6.1 Connectivity
The primary access and circulation roadway is the main access roadway (MAR)
connecting the NH44 to the terminal area facilities. The following additional
external access/connectivity is required to cater to the higher travel demands of
KIA, in future.
1. The 6 lanes South West connectivity has been operationalized in March 2018.
Developments of the roads connecting from the city to this connectivity is been
taken up by the government to ensure this road becomes one on the main
entries to the airport.
2. Access to KIA from eastern side through SH-104 (eastern access) – Another
access to KIA is proposed from the existing SH-104 on the East, catering to the
eastern developments of KIA comprising of cargo, MRO and commercial
developments proposed in that area. This access is being extended and taken
to the Terminal forecourt such that passengers can access the airport from the
eastern entry. This is proposed as a six lane divided road with possibility of
upgradation to a 10 lane road (till the eastern boundary) in the future. This
entry will help in segregating the passenger traffic and the cargo traffic by
providing separate access for them to the airport, thus dividing the load on any
particular road. This will also be a major road for the cargo traffic originating
or destined to the KIADB Aerospace SEZ.
3. Access to KIA from NH-44 from North Western corner of BIAL Area (Emergency
Access) – This access presently available in a rudimentary form is from the NH-
44 near the ROB via the Devanhalli Business Park Area. This access though not
planned as a major access needs to be maintained for emergency and purposes
in case the other two roads get blocked.
4. Metro: BMRCL the SPV for rail metro in Bangalore city is in discussions with BIAL
for extending the metro services to the airport. This metro connectivity is
expected to be operational by 2024. The airport will have two stations, one
near to the western boundary and second station (terminating) in the terminals
forecourt area.
5. Suburban rail: B-RIDE the SPV for providing the suburban rail services in the
Bangalore city has initiated discussions with BIAL to provide suburban rail
services till the terminals forecourt area. Alignment finalization studies are in
progress.
6. Railway station: A broad-gauge line is passing through the airport land which
connects Bangalore city and Kolar. Based on the directions from the state
government a Halt Station is planned to be constructed and commissioned in
the area passing through the airport land. This Halt Station is expected to
significantly benefit the staff and work force commuting to the airport.
Solid waste generated from the airport area comprises of STP sludge, food waste,
garbage, waste oil from STP and workshops, bio medical, hazardous wastes etc.
The details of existing solid waste generation are given in Table-3.8.
The KIA master plan has reserved land for world class vocational Institutes,
Cultural Institutions, research centers, etc. coupled with environmental friendly
development to match global standards.
The development will also house police stations, post offices and fuel Stations to
serve the proposed facilities in KIA.
KIA master plan shall implant social infrastructure that breathe life deep into the
fabric of the entire development, not in separated precincts, into urban
environments and public space amenity, will enable the proposed development to
embrace urbanism and drive the output of world class airport.
The entire land required for the project is within the existing premises of KIA
limited and does not have any settlement issues. So, there shall be no
Rehabilitation & Resettlement (R&R) in the proposed expansion.
