Ahmedabad is in the Gujarat Region of India, situated in the western part of the nation above the Maharashtra Province. According to the 2011 census, Ahmedabad’s population was approximately 7.2 million. anna.aero is a big fan of India’s sixth largest city (based on population). The data elves just love exploring the city’s wide range of festivals, and it is well known that the elves are master performers of the Garba, a dance which originates from Gujarat. The city of Ahmedabad is current served by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Airport, which last year welcomed 6.2 million passengers. However, a proposed new airport is scheduled to be built called Dholera International, and it will be around 80 kilometres from Ahmedabad and around 20 kilometres from the Dholera Special Investment Region (SIR). The airport at Dholera is expected to replace the existing airport at Ahmedabad, which is limited on its expansion due to geographical constraints. According to the Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board (GIDB), the new facility is expected to be operational before 2020. In the meantime, as the current airport is in operation, anna.aero’s data elves thought it would be good idea to see what’s happening at the current facility, and see how things are shaping up in terms of Ahmedabad’s development before the transition to the new transport hub takes place.
