Vishakhapatnam: The ground has been cleared for conversion of the old terminal building at the Visakhapatnam Airport into a cargo complex. The Rs. 68-lakh project has been awarded to a local contractor and the work is expected to begin in a few days and completed in six months.
Some of the walls will be demolished to house the Customs wing, offices of the cargo section, booking and delivery rooms and a temperature control room among other things.
The stairway inside the old building connecting the ground floor to the first floor will be dismantled and a new staircase will be constructed on the west side of the building.
The objective is to ensure that there is no link between the cargo offices and the offices of the Airport Director and general administration, located on the first floor. A single window will be provided for the convenience of exporters and importers. “The cargo complex project is expected to be completed by December this year.
