Planning is in progress to build a new airport about one kilometer (0.6 miles) south and build a new smart city district on the site of the current airport. The smart city will be largely focused on transportation and sustainability. The new airport could be ready before 2030, according to media's paraphrasing (in January 2022) of Avinor.[6]
