Jaipur: After a wait of nearly two years the survey for the runway expansion work at Jaipur airport started on Saturday. The civil work would begin from March 1 by an Udaipur-based firm and Airport Authority of India (AAI) is aiming at completing the work by July 2015 to accommodate big international aircrafts.
The runway will remain closed from 9.30-11.15 am and from 2.50-3.50 pm during the first phase of work from February 1-March 31. These slots are taken just to ensure that minimal number of flights have to be rescheduled. "These are the slots when we merely have three flights. Two Air India flights from Delhi to Mumbai via Jaipur and one flight to Ahmedabad were rescheduled," said SN Borkar, director, AAI, Jaipur.
