Separate entry, exit at Chennai airport may be introduced next month

Chennai:Flyers are likely to face fewer hassles on the ground soon, with the Chennai airport to get separate entry and exit points for its international and domestic terminals. The plan, behind schedule by five months, could be implemented within 20 days after Airports Authority of India appoints a new parking contractor.
The plan was scheduled to be implemented in April and a trial was conducted and kiosks and boom barriers were installed at the new entry routes but the plan got stuck after the car parking contract ran into trouble. AAI issued termination notice to the contractor who also manages the entry/exit points because he submitted a fake bank guarantee. In an attempt to annul the termination, he has submitted a fresh bank guarantee following a direction from Madras High Court.

As per new traffic pattern, the vehicles that come to domestic and international departures will enter the airport using two entries from GST Road and will be routed to the terminals via two new ramps. Cars dropping off passengers at these two terminals will have separate exits.
