No end to traffic ordeal for fliers at Kolkata

Kolkata: Rajeev Banerjee nearly missed his evening flight on Wednesday despite reaching the entrance to the airport off VIP Road 90 minutes before the scheduled departure. Anuj Dugar actually did miss his flight a couple of days earlier. He, too, had left for airport well on time and reached the entry point with time to spare.
Banerjee and Dugar are among scores of passengers who report late for evening flights because they get stuck in traffic snarls within the airport complex. "It took me an hour to travel less than a kilometre from the airport entrance to another gate that opens to Jessore Road. Incredibly, most of the cars were headed for Jessore road, but they blocked the lane that leads to the airport," recounted Banerjee.
