NEW DELHI: Transiting between the various terminals of IGI Airport, the world’s 12th busiest hub, will become a breeze in a few years’ time, with the airport operator finalising the route of an “air train” connecting the terminals as well as Aerocity, the hotel centre.
The train will have four stations, including one at the cargo terminal, which are also expected to provide seamless connectivity with Metro lines. Delhi International Airport Pvt Ltd is currently working on financing the “automated people mover” (APM) project, expected to cost Rs 2,000-2,500 crore.
DIAL did not give a date for the project’s completion but it is likely to be ready in three to four years. This fits in with the timeline given for other ongoing and future phase-wise expansion projects of IGIA.
