In a bid to ensure faster movement of traffic to the airport, Airport Authority of India (AAI) has decided to build an alternate road and had entrusted DMRC with conducting a techno-economic feasibility report. The complete plan, including land acquisition, planning and implementation has already been submitted by DMRC to AAI with a cost estimate worth ₹1,357 crore. In the cost estimate, the road Link from Chandigarh (NH-21 end) to Chandigarh airport will cost ₹1,097.99 crore and the clover leaves and tunnel together would cost around ₹118.63 crore thereby bringing the total cost to ₹1,216.62 crore and that the completion cost at the annual escalation rate of 5 percent will reach push the cost to ₹1,357 crore excluding land and taxes by 2022. The report stated that when implemented, the alternative route would reduce the distance by 10 km. This road connectivity from Chandigarh (NH-21) to the New Terminal Building of Chandigarh International Airport on the Mohali side (Punjab) has been planned to provide direct access to the New Terminal Building of the Chandigarh International Airport on Mohali side to commuters belonging to Chandigarh, Zirakpur and Panchkula (Haryana) without going to Zirakpur. This road connectivity will reduce the distance by about 10 km whereby the total length of this road connectivity is 6.41 km, including approaches and clover leaves.
