With the preliminary techno-feasibility study by the Maharashtra Airport Development Company (MADC) and the Airports Authority of India (AAI) finding the site for airstrips at Rajgurunagar “non-feasible”, the district administration is scouting for alternate sites in the same area.
“With the earlier site being highly undulating terrain, we are looking for plain areas. We are hoping to get back to the MADC soon with the alternate site in the same area,” said senior officials in the district administration.
MADC had in its preliminary techno-feasibility study of the proposed site of the airstrips found it “non-feasible.” It stated that the approach funnel within the inner horizontal circle at the site shown for developing airstrips at Rajgurunagar has has natural obstructions that cannot be removed and hence was not feasible.
