Accordingly for the next two years starting from June 10, the 1.4 km main access road to the Kempegowda International Airport terminal will be closed due to expansion work. Meanwhile during this period, traffic will be directed through the south access road which was opened recently and the road runs parallel to the main access road and is six lanes wide.
Furthermore this means vehicles coming to the airport from the city side will turn right after the Trumpet Interchange and reach the south Access Road (SAR). Apparently Vehicles heading out of the Airport from the departure gates, will follow the existing exit path from the Terminal and head towards P6 parking to reach the SAR and vehicles returning from Arrival Gates, will continue using the existing route towards SAR.
Moreover owing to a sharp rise in passenger volumes and cargo transportation, vehicular movement at the BLR Airport has witnessed a rapid surge. Perhaps the trend will increase as the passenger volumes are expected to grow at an intense pace in the coming years. To cater to this stupendous growth, BIAL has invested Rs. 13,000 crore to construct a Terminal 2, second runway and other associated projects.
