History


The Airports Authority of India approved construction of a passenger terminal at the Trishul Air Force Base. The district administration bought 10 hectares (25 acres) of land from local farmers for the project. The AAI began the tender process to award construction contracts for the airport in September 2017, and expected the civil enclave to be ready by March 2018, pending the approval from the Government of Uttar Pradesh. However, the IAF requested changes in the layout of the taxiway connecting the terminal to the runway. After the Ministry of Defence approved the taxiway, passenger service was hoped to begin by February 2019. The job of developing the civil enclave was awarded to M/s SCC Infrastructure Pvt.Ltd. a construction company based at Ahmedabad, and the turn key engineering and design of the proposed structures was entrusted to M/s Solcon Consultants a design and engineering firm based at Vadodara, Gujarat.
