Metropolis will be a passe soon as airport cities are expanding rapidly all over the world. They are currently very much in news thanks to Mr. John Kasarda, a professor, who has coined the word Aerotropolis. He had a vision to shape the future in a different way. At present, cities are fast developing near the airport. Airports are no more meant to be developed in an area which is already developed. India has come up with plans of starting an Aerotropolis in West Bengal. Ludhiana will also get a smart and efficient Aerotropolis in the near future.
Kazi Nazrul or the Andal Airport that is already operational will act as an anchor for the Sujaalam city that is being started at Andal, Durgapur – also branded as bengal aerotropolis 2014. This sky city covering an area of over 2300 acres is simply a short distance from Durgapur, the city recognised as an industrial city. This beautifully planned city will be one more step towards modern urbanisation. Designed excellently by top companies like TCE, L&T Ramboll Consulting Engineers Limited, Genpact and Changi Airport Consultants Pte Ltd the sky city has been designed so as to meet the global standards.
