Bihar starts construction of ₹1,216-cr JPNIA airport
Construction work has resumed for a new terminal building at Jay Prakash Narayan International Airport at Patna. Nearly 51% work on the cargo complex, technical block, fire station, air traffic control tower and multi-level car parking is in full swing. These auxiliary buildings are likely to become operational by March 2021. Two floors of ground plus five multi-level car parking have been completed. Work has also resumed on the existing terminal building's security area, check-in counters, X-ray baggage machines, frisking booths, shopping outlets, retail segments and a lounge. The construction companies have been asked to follow the standard operating procedure (SOP) based on guidelines issued by the Union ministry of home affairs. The project may get delayed by a few months due to shortage of workers, days lost due to lockdown and slow pace of work on account of social distancing. There might also be some issues in procuring the materials and equipment. The Airports Authority of India (AAI), Patna, has set the target of completing the two-storey terminal building by 22 October 2022 for which the Centre has already allocated ₹1,216 crore.
