multiple numbers taking it into consideration. Indian government has decide so have at least one airport in every district. Pune have already one airport which is situated at Lohegaon. But due to heavy air traffic Maharashtra Government has decided to have one more airport for traffic control purpose in Pune district. The elaborate design of runway of proposed international airport at Purandar Pune, Maharashtra, India.
(ii) To grant the shortest taxi distance possible from the terminal area to the ends of the runway. (iii) To make provision for adequate taxiway so that the landing aircraft can leave the runways as quickly as possible and follow routes as short as possible to the terminal area.
Key Words: Design of Runway, Orientation, Traffic Control
2. Methodology:
1. INTRODUCTION
We have collect the information about “Place of the site, 10 years wind data from Indian Metrological Department (IMD), Elevation of site, and Distance of airport from city, Highway, River and Area of the site” by Google Earth for windrose diagram and runway length to our selected study area.
The proposed Purandar International Airport which is named as Chatrapati Sabhaji Raje International airport it is 45km away from Pune city. It is proposed green field airport to serve the city of Pune India. It will built near Pune in Pune district of the Pune district in the Indian state of Maharashtra. In 2016 it was announced that the proposed airport would spread over 2400 acres. The airport would be named as after the king of the Maratha Empire, Sambhaji Maharaj, who was born at Purandar Fort.
2.1 Runway orientation:(1) Preliminary information required:It is necessary to collect the following data before deciding the orientation of the runway:(i) Maps of the area in the vicinity of the airport showing contours at suitable intervals.
The Airport Authority of India conducted survey on various areas near Pune for a new airport for the city. Initially site near Chakan was chosen for the airport but due to opposition from local farmers and mountainous terrain taluka. As it was a flatter region compared to Chakan. The airport is planned to include a decided cargo terminal. The site is 18° 20ˊ 56˝N 074°08ˊ02˝E. The average elevation of airport is 739m.
(ii) Records of direction, force and direction of the wind in the vicinity and fog characteristics of the area for as long a period as possible.
(2) Head wind:The runway is usually oriented in the direction of the prevailing winds. The head wind indicates the wind from the opposite direction of the head or nose of the aircraft while it is landing or taking off. The orientation of runway along the head wind grants the following two advantages:
The number and orientation of the runway plays an important role in the overall arrangement of various components of an airport. The number of runway will depend on the volume of air traffic while its orientation will depend on the direction of the wind and sometimes on the extent area available for the airport development.
(i) During landing, it provides a breaking effect and the aircraft comes to a stop in a short length of the runway. (ii) During take off, it provides greater lift on the wings of the aircraft.
In general, the arrangement of the runway and connecting taxiway should comply with the following conditions:

Thus the landing and take off operations take place in a shorter length of the runway due to the head wind than what it would have been, if the landing and take off were in the
