The disruption in the global supply chain and shortage of manpower owing to the Covid-19 pandemic have led to a delay in the completion of Bengaluru International Airport’s Terminal II, the management of the Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) said on Thursday.
The airport authorities said they were now committed to ensure completion of all projects at the Kempegowda International Airport within existing deadlines. The March 2021 deadline for completion of Terminal II was pushed to March 2022 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Speaking to Indianexpress.com, the BIAL spokesperson said, “The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly impacted various construction projects. In addition, Covid-19 safety protocols for construction workers had to be factored into the plans.
