Where’s the new airport terminal?

New Delhi: The old international Terminal 2 of Indira Gandhi International Airport was closed on Wednesday and all international flight operations were shifted to the new Terminal 3. Passengers, however, are still landing up at the mothballed Terminal 2 and getting late for their flights.
Apart from passenger's ignorance, the lack of enough signage and information boards is also to blame.
Though private airport operator Delhi International Airport Ltd. (DIAL) had assured that there would be enough signage to guide passengers to the correct terminal, the reality is different.
From the point at NH 8, near Radisson Hotel, where passengers turn towards the airport and till the roundabout where two different roads lead to T3 and T2, there are no visible signage to guide passengers. There is a huge signboard after the roundabout but those who miss it, head directly towards the closed terminal. Though passengers from Delhi are still aware about T3, thanks to media coverage, those coming from nearby towns have no clue.
