In a major boost to the Bhogapuram International Airport project near Vizag, the Andhra Pradesh Government has greenlit an additional 500 acres of land to support the airport’s expansion and surrounding infrastructure development. This decision aims to bridge the land gap identified in the airport’s master plan and ensure the long-term sustainability of the ambitious project.
According to the finalized master plan:
-
1,733 acres are designated for the airport structure itself
-
92 acres have been marked for highway connectivity
-
83.5 acres are allocated for cargo facilities
-
98 acres for the North Terminal
-
494 acres for securing the airport boundary
-
201 acres have been set aside for residential and commercial infrastructure
While the total requirement stands at 2,703 acres, the previous administration allotted only 2,203 acres, creating a shortfall of 500 acres. The newly elected coalition government has stepped in to resolve this gap by approving the missing land allocation.
Officials believe that the additional land will allow for enhanced planning around connectivity, cargo, logistics, commercial zones, and future terminal expansion. This move reflects the government's vision to transform Bhogapuram Airport into a world-class aviation hub, complementing Vizag’s growing importance as a business and tourism destination.
With construction already underway, the expanded land allocation will also help in attracting global airlines, logistics companies, and investors, while generating large-scale employment in the region.
