After 2 months of repairs, Mumbai airport to function normally from March 31
The Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) will be fully operational from Sunday, almost two months after the repairs began, leading to operations being shut down for three days a week, for six hours.
The Mumbai International Airport Pvt Ltd. (MIAL), which manages the airport, said it has re-carpeted the top two layers (four inches thick) of the runway and the work is expected to last for 10 years. The last such major repair work was carried out in 2009-10, when the top layer of the intersection of the airport’s two runways was fixed. The airport announced on Thursday that 98% of the work is done and they will return to their regular schedule from March 31.
