Methodology for First 5 Year Plan:-

Rapid Taxi Exit way is proposed as a solution to decrease the Runway occupancy &
increase the number of flights per hour( In future,the construction of new taxiway will
require closure of the runway which will hamper operations so it is proposed to go in for
one additional Rapid Exit at this initial stage)
3. Parking bays for 6 Aircrafts are proposed to enhance the Apron capacity from 23 nos. to
29 nos. in Phase- 1.
4. Proposed Multi- Level Car Park with road widening in front of Integrated Terminal Building
