AIRPORT PROJECT BEGINS December 17 Completion Date

Anguilla, where tourism plays a major role in the economy, has joined other Caribbean islands in expanding airport facilities to meet the demands for larger aircraft and to accommodate increasing numbers of travellers. Preliminary work has now commenced on the expansion of Wallblake Airport to 5400 feet with extensions both to the east and to the west. The US$20.7 million project falls short of 600 feet to the east, following the failure of Government so far to acquire the needed land.
