Like Ila and him, tens of thousands of people on the periphery of Ahmedabad airport live in the shadow of danger, as highlighted by a 2022 study, ‘You’re Surrounded! Measuring the Enclosure of Airports in Urban Areas’, by Belgian researchers Taïs Grippa &amp; Frédéric Dobruszkes.

The index, calculated within a 15km radius, puts eight Indian airports in the top 50.

The enclosure index measures how densely populated an airport’s surroundings are, with people living closer to the airport weighted more heavily, since aviation impacts like noise and pollution decrease with distance. Ahmedabad, which witnessed the worst aviation disaster in Indian history, is ranked 12th globally with an enclosure index of 10,82,503.

Guidelines for airport development specify different rules for new airports and for expansion of existing ones. For the new airports, a buffer area of 6-8sq km — where residential construction is not permitted — is recommended. For existing airports, it is recommended for city planners to disallow residential areas, hospitals and schools from being laid out within a certain area of the aerodrome. </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
The Urban and Regional Development Plans Formulation and Implementation (URDPFI) guidelines, which most urban plans refer to as a basis for allocating land use, based on population and consequent infrastructure demands, recommend a buffer zone of 20km radius around an airport. This zone must have very low development, and not contain things like wildlife sanctuaries/ zoos/bird sanctuaries.

Utpal Sharma, chair professor at Nirma University’s Institute of Architecture and Planning, who has worked extensively on housing policies and urban design guidelines, says many airports — such as the ones in Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Delhi — were built on the outskirts, long before the urban sprawl around them grew. “We did not anticipate this growth,” he says. </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
While it is too late to move things around existing airports, cities like Mumbai and Delhi are shifting new air operations outside their limits. Ahmedabad, too, is considering a move to Dholera, offering planners a chance to guide development appropriately. P L Sharma, a city planning expert, says maintaining a 2040km green buffer around existing airports is “impossible” and riddled with enforcement challenges. </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">

The ‘airport funnel’ is a designated corridor that aircraft follow during take-offs and landings, and forms a critical component of air safety that must remain clear of all obstructions. “If these funnels are ‘punctured’ by objects (such as buildings or other constructions), they may pose a threat to aircraft during landing or take-off,” explains P L Sharma, adding that the funnel area extends up to 22km. This regulatory provision has been in place for over 30 years and is enforced by the civil aviation department.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
According to him, in Surat (39th in enclosure index rankings), there were around 20 buildings puncturing the funnel in 2016. “They are still there. In Bhavnagar, there is no mechanism to measure the airport reference point to know which building is puncturing the funnel,” he says. Authorities don’t think about disasters, so they control the flight path with height restrictions — the minimum thing to do under development pressure, according to experts.

“Currently, buildings around the upcoming airport in Panvel have been granted a height of over 150m,” says Mumbai architect Laxmi Bhagwat. “This forces us to think — were the rules laid earlier incorrect, or whether amendments made to them have failed to accommodate a larger picture.”</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
This is particularly important, as India envisions 50 new airports for enhanced connectivity, economic expansion and ease of living. “Hence, safety around airports must be given importance, especially when most air disasters take place during take-offs and landings,” adds Bhagwat, calling for involvement of urban planning experts and architects, along with aviation experts, in drafting development policies. 
As population density grows, and with the wave of redevelopment, residents of Mumbai’s Vile Parle are seeking increase in permissible heights over and above the prescribed height by civil aviation authorities due to lack of awareness of the impacts of living around an airport.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">

But Amitabh Pawde, a former AAI engineer who was posted in Ahmedabad and Guwahati, among other airports, says air safety cannot be assured in piecemeal expansion. “This is not how international airports are developed.

But an aviation industry source says it’s impossible to have airports without population around them. Even if they are built away from the city, a satellite population will develop. “Air accidents are one in a million,” he says, requesting anonymity. “This study’s model will not be of help in urban planning.

A prime example of that is Mumbai’s Dharavi slums, which sprawl adjacent to both airport terminals. “Low-cost house owners are unaware of the risk they are living under,” says P L Sharma. “You can’t expect them to be aware of the rules on planned development, when their real need is a roof above their head.”</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
