Passengers at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi, India, will soon benefit from a new pedestrian subway connecting Terminal 3 (T3) with Terminal 2 (T2). Currently, travelers must walk approximately 750 meters or rely on shuttle buses to transfer between terminals, but the new subway will reduce this distance to about 80 meters. This significant improvement is particularly beneficial for domestic travelers, as T2 primarily serves airlines like IndiGo and Akasa Air. The subway, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year, will feature escalators and a covered pathway, allowing passengers to move directly from the Airport Express Line Metro station at T3 to T2 without stepping outside or waiting for transport. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, in collaboration with Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), is overseeing the construction, which employs the 'box-pushing' method to minimize disruption. The new link is anticipated to enhance safety, comfort, and overall travel efficiency for airport users.
