INTRODUCTION 2.1 BACKGROUND Vijayawada Airport is connected to several domestic destinations including all major cities in India like Delhi, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Chennai. Air Deccan introduced a daily service between Hyderabad and Vijayawada in September 2003. Until 2011, the airport had only four flights a day operated by Kingfisher Airlines.

The existing terminal can handle up to 500 passengers at any point of time and has 18 check-in counters. The present proposal is for construction of a new Integrated Terminal Building and allied facilities. Existing Vijayawada Airport 2.2 PROJECT PROPONENT The Government of India constituted the International Airports Authority of India (IAAI) in 1972 to manage the nation's international airports while the National Airports Authority was constituted in 1986 to look after domestic airports. The organizations were merged in April 1995 by an Act of Parliament and was named as Airports Authority of India (AAI). This new organization was to be responsible for creating, upgrading, maintaining and managing civil aviation infrastructure both on the ground and air space in the country.

An Aerodrome Visual Simulator (AVS) has been provided at CATC and non-radar procedural ATC simulator equipment is being supplied to CATC Allahabad and Hyderabad Airport. AAI has a dedicated Flight Inspection Unit (FIU) with a fleet of three aircraft fitted with flight inspection system to inspect Instrument Landing Systems up to Cat-III, VORs, DMEs, NDBs, VGSI (PAPI, VASI) and RADAR (ASR/MSSR). 2.3 TYPE OF PROJECT The present proposal is for construction of a new Integrated Terminal Building and allied facilities like surface parking, driver’s canteen, toilet facility on the city side, canopy on city side for passenger facilitation, city side compound wall and utility building. The proposed project falls in Category 7(a) of the Schedule vide EIA notification 2006 amended to date involving preparation of Environment Impact Assessment study and Environment Management Plan. However general condition is not applicable to this project. This project is independent and is not linked with other projects’ which may attract directly or indirectly any provisions of schedule of EIA notification 2006 amended to date. 2.4 AIRPORT SECTOR PROFILE India’s transformation from an agrarian economy to an urbanized one is an inevitable consequence of GDP growth led by service sector and saturation of agricultural productivity. Air connectivity can ensure integration of such urbanizing areas with the rest of the country and national economy. Development of appropriate connectivity between robust urban agglomerations could check the influx of migrants to large metro and provide for more balance regional development. The civil air transport network has been called the Real World Wide Web. It has been observed that the improvement in air connectivity has brought tremendous benefits to users of air transport services by: Reducing time spent in transit Increasing the frequency of service Allowing for shorter waiting times and better targeting of departure and arrival times; Improving the quality of service, such as reliability, punctuality and quality of the travel experience. India is the 9th largest civil aviation market in the world. In FY 2016-17, civil aviation sector witnessed a growth of around 20-25%.

    1 Revue de presse Semaines 49 & 50 (3-16 décembre 2018) Kannur: The long wait is over, and the dream has come true. Finally, Kannur International Airport (KIAL) has taken wings with the maiden flight by Air India Express to Abu Dhabi. Chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan and union minister for civil aviation Suresh Prabhu flagged off the first aircraft at 10.06 am on Sunday, carrying 185 passengers, thus crossing yet another milestone in the aviation history of the nation, by commissioning the fourth international airport in the state. Later, addressing a public meeting, Pinarayi Vijayan, who formally inaugurated the facility, said when the idea of the airport evolved way back in 1990s, there was apprehension whether it would be practical to have an airport here. But now the airport has been materialized and it has the potential to become one of the most important 4-5 airports in the country. He also said the Kerala government is ready to take over Thiruvananthapuram airport, since the central government has decided to privatise it. In the case of Kozhikode airport also the government has the same stand, as it has experience in managing airports, said the chief minister. Union minister Suresh Prabhu, who was the chief guest on the occasion, said this airport is a very good model of development with the central and state governments having stake in it. Observing that connectivity is a pre-requisite for development, the minister also said Kerala has the highest potential for growth. Though Air India Express and Go Air have started operation in the beginning, more companies would start operations in the coming days, said the officials.
