Upon completion, the Jewar Airport will emerge as one of the three biggest airports in the world, including O’Hare International Airport in Chicago, Daxing International Airport in Beijing, China, and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in Texas, US.
Airports play a crucial role in the development of any city and its economy. The IGI airport of New Delhi helped Gurugram to become a millennial city which now houses thousands of MNCs and contributes billions of dollars in GDP as well as tax collection of Haryana.
“There is a huge opportunity to increase the percentage potential of exports from India and UP to France. A large land parcel has been earmarked for maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) near the Jewar Airport in Greater Noida which can provide investment opportunities to French companies,” said UP MSME minister. The state aims to double up the MSME exports to 2.4 lakh crore rupees in the next three years from 1.2 lakh crore rupees as of now.
What makes Jewar Airport a game-changer is the fact that its location and connectivity has been meticulously planned. It is going to be merely 700 metres away from the Yamuna Expressway connecting Delhi and Agra. Also, it will be just 30 kilometres away from the National Highway 22-A connecting Palwal and Aligarh.
Moreover, the southern side of the airport is planned to be connected to the proposed Palwal-Khurja airport. What also boosts connectivity for other towns dependent upon Delhi-NCR for air connectivity is the fact that it is expected to be connected to the Eastern Peripheral Expressway. This will ensure ease of access for cities like Palwal, Manesar, Ghaziabad, Bhagpat and Meerut.
Uttar Pradesh is seeking a large pie of the companies leaving China amid the ongoing disruption in supply chain and the state has the existing capacity to replace China as the ‘factory of the world’ with a population of 22 crores and a young demography. Unfortunately, the state was deprived of an investment-friendly government before, but with the arrival of Yogi, things have been moving rapidly.
Jewar Airport Area will be the crown of Noida and the biggest industrial corridor in India
