The development of Dholera International Airport is progressing at a remarkable pace, bringing Gujarat closer to one of its most ambitious infrastructure projects. As per recent updates, the airport is on track for completion and is expected to be operational by December 2025.
A Game-Changer for Gujarat’s Connectivity
The Dholera Airport, located around 80 km from Ahmedabad, is designed to be a world-class aviation hub. Once completed, it will significantly ease air traffic pressure from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad and create new opportunities for domestic as well as international travel.
With state-of-the-art facilities, modern runways, and advanced cargo handling capabilities, the airport is expected to enhance global connectivity and support Gujarat’s ambition of becoming a key destination for investment, tourism, and trade.
The airport is directly linked to the Dholera Special Investment Region (DSIR) and the upcoming Dholera Smart City. This strategic alignment makes it a catalyst for:
Faster industrial development
Increased foreign investments
Growth in real estate and infrastructure projects
Employment generation across multiple sectors
