The Karnataka government has approved a budget of Rs. 319.13 crore for the expansion of Mysuru Airport, which is located on the outskirts of the city at Mandakalli and spans 490 acres. The state government purchased the land for the expansion, which will be handed over to the Airports Authority of India (AAI). Planes like the Boeing 737 and the Airbus A320 can land on the expanded runway.
A 10-lane Economic Corridor connecting Mysuru and Bengaluru, as well as the Container Corporation of India’s (CONCOR) Multi-Modal Logistics Park in Kadakola, will be game-changers in the region. It will increase economic and industrial activity, as well as tourism and education.
Only ATR-72 type planes can land at Mysore Airport, which measures 1,740 metres in length and 30 metres in width. The runway needed to be extended to 2,750 metres and its width increased to 45 metres in order to accommodate larger planes, which necessitated the acquisition of over 240 acres of additional land.
