Mszczonów and Modlin probable sites for new airport

They rejected Nowe Miasto on the Pilica River, Radom and Wołomin. "Now we will analyze the two remaining locations with funds from the Civil Aviation Office (ULC) and the Polish Airports Authority (PPL). We might also evaluate Babsk and Sochaczew, but the analysis of these locations will have to be financed from their local council's own sources," said Infrastructure Minister Marek Pol. The latter two locations are to be examined following a request from the Mayor of Łódź. "Pointing at Mszczonów and Modlin is a signal for wealthier land owners to prepare an analysis and to participate in the construction of the airport," claims an anonymous expert. The final decision concerning the location of the new airport would be made by the end of the year. The Infrastructure Ministry believes that the total cost of the project is between EUR 1.3-2 billion. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 5) M.M.
