Finally, a door is opened as the new gateway to Mumbai, the
T2 terminal and strengthen the position of Mumbai. This can be seen as a victory in infrastructure wise for Mumbai. T2 has 140
counters with a large waiting area which will reduce the chaos and crowd
within premises. And, the multilevel car park with space for over 5,000 vehicles, the 9 storied car
parking is one of the biggest in the country. There are 3 floors underground
and 6 floors above ground in the car park. The roof of the car park matches
with departure curve and converted it into the entire garden and open spaces
and this is going to be one of the largest open garden space in Mumbai.
Moreover, it consists of 37 travelators, 48 escalators and 72 elevators aid
those who fret over rushing to take connecting flights. From 2300 CCTV cameras
to a Fire Alarm System that comprises of 70,000 detection devices with 400 km
of cables along T2, to the security check in counters being placed even before
the immigration area, great stress has been laid to ensure safety and security
at T2.
And, it has
nearly 3,000 cameras inside the building, kilometres and kilometres of cables,
so one can go on with the statistics. A 6 lane elevated road will lead
passengers from the Western Expressway to T2 cutting down on travel time. When
fully functional, domestic flights too will be shifting to the terminals. For
now all set to handle international flights in the next few weeks Mumbai awaits
its newest landmark. Now the new Mumbai Airport will expand the capacity of the
passengers from the current 30 million to 40 million.
It seems that
the financial capital of India got some international potential and style.
