A major highway realignment project has been announced in Udham Singh Nagar to facilitate the expansion of Pantnagar International Airport. The National Highway (NH) 109 will be relocated by 7 km behind the airport to accommodate the airport鈥檚 expansion plans.

Vikas Mittal, Project Director at the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), confirmed that a detailed project report (DPR) for the realignment is being prepared and will be submitted by December 22. The realigned stretch will curve near the Anandi Mata Temple, follow the railway line, and reconnect with the main highway near Sanjay Colony, passing close to the airport鈥檚 new boundaries.

This realignment is part of a larger effort to expand Pantnagar Airport, with the district administration having already allocated land from Pantnagar University and Sainik Farm for the expansion. The transfer of 524.78 acres of land to the Airports Authority of India (AAI) was recently completed.
