The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) inspected Delhi Airport's runway 28/10 today, May 5. The runway was closed from April 8, 2024, for an Instrument Landing System (ILS) upgrade.
The inspection is part of a larger project, and it will be shut down again on June 15 for further work. The runway will be fully operational by September 15.
The abrupt decision comes after days of significant delays brought on by the early Easterly winds, which are unusual at this time of year. In these circumstances, a plane may only land from the Dwarka side and take off in the direction of Vasant Vihar. Operations have slowed down as a result, especially regarding arrivals.
Replying to a Zee Business tweet, Delhi Airport said, "We would like to inform you that part upgrade work on Runway 28/10 at Delhi Airport was carried out as per agreement with key stakeholders. As per standard procedure, the DGCA will soon conduct a detailed inspection and regular flight operations are expected to resume."
