New Delhi: Wizened by the last year's Airport metro row, the Ministry of Urban Development is mulling to provide alternative transportation to the flyers in the form of bus facility at the National Capital's Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport. The ministry is carrying out a survey and studying the pattern of transportation which flyers generally prefer to travel to the airport.
"The study is being carried out to see whether bus facility could be introduced at the airport," an official said. The pros and cons of introducing the bus service, right outside from the airport's terminals, to various parts of the city is being considered by the ministry for the benefit of flyers and visitors alike.
As buses and auto-rickshaws are not allowed to ply to both the domestic and international terminals, people mostly hire private taxis to either reach or leave the IGI airport. "A commuter living in Defence Colony or New Friends Colony will not use the Airport metro service. They will use their vehicle or hire private taxis," the official pointed.
