Mangaluru, Aug 10, 2022: Capturing the essence of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav in a creative way is Mangaluru International Airport through lighting and installations. While the lighting add luster to the exteriors, the installations inside give one a peek into progress India has made since Independence.
The entire inner façade of the airport covering the arrival and departure areas on the ground floor comes alive in the tricolor as dusk sets in and when the lights are turned on. Simultaneously, the LED lights on the street light poles, the architecture at the roundabout, lights fitted to shrubs and trees on the lower ground floor, gently reflect the soothing saffron, white, and green.
The ’tricolour’ illumination across the airport premises has been facilitated with the use of 170 LED lights, each of 200w capacity. Additionally, 4000 feet of LED strips has been strung at vantage points including 34 poles, at the roundabout and on the shrubs and trees. The use of LED lights for this purpose is in line with a decision taken at the airport to use energy efficient lighting systems.
A huge installation in front of the airline baggage screening area in the departure hall gives one an insight into the nation’s progress in diverse sectors. Likewise, AKAM installations in the domestic and international departure areas and at the domestic arrival area, gives one the opportunity to click selfies to treasure the moment of having flown at an epochal moment in the nation’s history.
The façade and approach lighting and the installations set up on Aug 8, will be in place up to Aug 31. This will give stakeholders ample opportunity to treasure and share this special moment with their loved ones.
