Changi Airport spreads wings to India

ATW's Airports Today, August, 2009, p.4

Changi Airports International, the international development subsidiary of Singapore's Changi Airport Group, took a 26% stake in Bengal Aerotropolis Projects Ltd. to develop an "aerotropolis" in the fast-growing Durgapur-Asansol region of eastern India. According to CAI, this involves the setting up of an industrial park, a logistics hub, an information technology park and a township around the privately owned airport. It is Changi's first investment in an Indian greenfield airport city project. Overall, the project aims to attract about $2.5 billion of investments.

CAI will assist in planning and development of the privately held Durgapur Airport as well as management of it when construction is completed. In the project's first phase, the airport will be developed over 263 hectares. The supporting industrial and social infrastructure will be developed over 686 hectares.
