New air traffic control tower to come up at Kolkata airport

Kolkata: A new air traffic control tower would come up at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport here which will help in easing traffic flow.

The new ATC tower would be set up with a cost of Rs 326 crore, Airport Advisory Committee chairman Saugata Roy said after a meeting of the panel.

Personnel with the help of various equipment control and monitor air traffic from an ATC tower and a new tower would help in managing the traffic in a better way.


The airport which had faced criticism for water-logging and breaking of glass panels after its facelift in January 2013, has bagged an international award this year.

The NSCBI Airport got the 'Best improved airport in Asia-Pacific region' from the Airport Council International in April, Roy, also an MP, told at a press conference.
