Mumbai: The government-controlled City and Industrial Development Corporation (Cidco) today kicked off the tendering process for the over Rs 14,500 crore international airport project in neighbouring Navi Mumbai.
"We have invited request for qualification (RFQ) for this greenfield project and we are expecting participation from global players," Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan said here.
The airport, coming up at Ulve village near Panvel, will help reduce the burden on Mumbai international airport, which can handle 40 million passengers a year, he said.
"Number of passengers is estimated to increase to 100 million by 2030. Keeping this in mind, it was decided to develop the Navi Mumbai airport, which will have a capacity of handling 60 million passengers a year," Chavan said.
