Noida: As Noida prepares to position itself as a global investment destination, authorities have cleared the way for a wave of luxury hotel developments to match its expanding infrastructure. Noida Authority board, in its meeting on Saturday, approved a proposal to allot land for five- and seven-star hotels, to serve the demand generated by the upcoming Noida International Airport and IT and industrial hubs. Officials say land parcels for these hotels will soon be identified and put out to tender, with the Authority looking to create a vibrant hospitality ecosystem that supports tourism, business travel, and international delegations expected with the airport's operation. In addition to the hotel policy, the Authority also approved a redevelopment plan aimed at revitalising ageing group housing societies, particularly those catering to low income group (LIG) and economically weaker section (EWS) residents. The scheme outlines clear processes for developer appointments, rehabilitation of residents and temporary relocation, to ensure improved housing and amenities.

Coimbatore corporation yet to get licence for new bus stand at Ukkadam
Coimbatore: While the city corporation has successfully invited tenders for the construction of a new bus stand at Ukkadam, it is yet to obtain the primary approval and licence for the facility from the regional transport authority. According to an official source, the tenders were floated a week ago and bidding is likely to be held on July 9. The state has sanctioned 23 crore for the project, the work order of which is expected to be issued within 10 days from the date of finalizing the bidder. The Ukkadam bus stand was demolished in 2018 to facilitate flyover work. Spread across 6.5 acres, the new bus stand would have two terminals – one for town buses with 30 bus bays and another for mofussil buses with 28 bus bays. The bus stand would have provisions for restaurants, shops and other facilities. A parking lot, which could accommodate 32 four-wheelers and 100 two-wheelers, is also part of the project. Commenting on the project, city corporation commissioner M Sivaguru Prabakaran said, "Fund has been sanctioned for the project. We will initiate the process to obtain the approval and licence for the bus stand only after finalizing the bidder, who might want to make some changes to the plan design and amenities, which the regional transport authority would scrutinize to grant the approval and licence. It would be more like renewal of the licence obtained for the old bus stand. " Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

Closure of runway to affect flight ops
New Delhi: From Sunday, Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi will temporarily shut one of its four runways, affecting 200 flights daily until Sept 15. The closure will result in 114 daily flight cancellations while the runway undergoes CAT-III specification upgrades to enhance its performance during heavy fog conditions. The airport administration previously announced that runway 28/10 would close from June 15 for improvements, impacting flight schedules. The closure of runway 28/10 aims to achieve CAT-IIIB compliance, improving operations during dense winter fog and upgrading the current instrument landing system (ILS). Videh Kumar Jaipuriar, CEO, Delhi International Airport Ltd, announced last week that while the enhancement works would take approximately three months, passengers would benefit during low-visibility conditions in the fog season. The administration worked with airlines to reorganise 86 daily flights and cancel 114 flights, with cancellations distributed equally between arrivals and departures during the closure period. Previous upgrades in April and May led to numerous flight delays. The situation worsened when the winds were easterly, reducing hourly landing capacity from 42 to 32 flights. Delhi airport's four runways (27/9, 28/10, 29R/11L, and 29L/11R) will operate differently during the closure. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo DIAL confirmed that runway 29R/11L will handle departures, 29L/11R will manage arrivals, while runway 27/9 will accommodate both. During westerly winds, the three operational runways can handle 42 arrivals and departures hourly. However, during easterly winds, departures will remain the same at 42, but arrivals will reduce to 32 per hour. The airport, which typically handles 1,450 daily flights, will see 7.5% daily cancellations during the upgrade, compared to the usual 3.5%. Management indicates this increase won't significantly disrupt operations. Officials confirmed consultation with all stakeholders and redistribution of flights from peak to non-peak hours. DIAL assured minimal impact on major airport connections. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .
