VISAKHAPATNAM: Traffic congestion at the Visakhapatnam International Airport will be a thing of the past soon as it is set to get a Rs 20-crore facelift. As part of the makeover, the existing three lanes at the airport will be expanded to seven, which will be further connected to the national highway to ease flow of traffic.
Proposals and designs have been prepared and tenders will be invited in December. Development works are likely to begin in February next year. The canopy at the airport will also be extended till the car parking area, both towards the right and left. Besides, signage boards will also be set up.
