The term “Aerotropolis” which means an airport city has
been popularized by American academic, Dr. John
Kasarda to explain the fact that they are actually cities in
which the layout, infrastructure and the economy are
centered around an Airport.

16. Traffic Forecast Methodology
4 Step process to determine Durgapur’s potential pax traffic at sector
level.
Air Determine no. of air passengers from Durgapur’s catchment
1 Passenger area now flying to/from Kolkata and Ranchi airports, whom we
Estimates can convert to use Durgapur Airport.
Train Calculate no. of existing train pax from Durgapur’s
2 Passenger catchment whom we can convert to use Durgapur Airport.
Estimates
Travel Obtain anecdotal feedback on travel demand to/from
3 Agents’ Durgapur through interviews with TA s based in Durgapur and
Feedback the region.
Sector-level Marry inputs from the desktop study and TA interviews to
4 Traffic come up with traffic estimates between Durgapur and various
Forecast cities.
Used 2009 figures as a base and grow these by 15% year-
on-year to obtain projected 2012 traffic when Durgapur airport
opens.
17. Total Estimated Pax at Durgapur

27. ATC COMPLEX
An unique conceptual design in the development of the ATC Complex. Its
uniqueness is in the integration of the Air Traffic Control, Administration,
Metrological and the Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting unit into one single
building. This is a proprietary design for this development and is the
first of its kind for airport in India.
Other special feature is in the conceptual design for the utilities and the
use of treated ground water for potable water in the airport and the
incorporation of a sewerage treatment plant to treat waste water for re-use
thus achieving zero discharge from the site.
