The international airport facility is being built to serve the Ahmedabad-Dholera SIR region. Due to a steady increase in the air traffic in Ahmedabad, the Ahmedabad airport shall be saturated by 2020. This had given rise to the need for an immediate solution that shall cater to the rising passenger and thus Dholera International Airport came into being. Apart from this, another reason that gave way for the facility was to connect Dholera seamlessly to the world. The city is being envisioned as a global trading and manufacturing hub and shall also be a preferred worldwide investment destination. Thus, it is imperative for it to be easily accessible by people across the globe.
