Economy Chapter- SOSW 2007

Airport
The consultation document (RCD) The Future Development of Air Transport in the United Kingdom: South West (DfT, 2002) provides an overview of a variety of issues that will impact upon the future development of aviation in the South West. One crucial issue on which the RCD invites comments is the question of providing new capacity at South West regional airports. This report considers an important aspect of this issue that receives little attention in the document - the possibility of developing a new Devon airport at Plymouth and possible rationalisation with Exeter.
