Rochester International Airport - Future

Future

  • Sometime in 2013, an Instrument Landing System is slated to be added to runway 2/20. This would make all runways at the airport able to handle landings in almost any weather.
  • Sometime before 2011, another jetway is slated to be added to the terminal, bringing the number of boarding bridge gates to 5.
  • Mn/DOT and ROCOG are currently planning a new runway and terminal. The new runway, 13R/31L, parallel to the airport's primary runway, is planned on being created about 2500' southwest of the primary runway. The new midfield terminal will be built between the two runways and just east of runway 2/20.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    He who asks fortune-tellers the future unwittingly forfeits an inner intimation of coming events that is a thousand times more exact than anything they may say. He is impelled by inertia, rather than curiosity, and nothing is more unlike the submissive apathy with which he hears his fate revealed than the alert dexterity with which the man of courage lays hands on the future.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    Our Last Will and Testament, providing for the only future of which we can be reasonably certain, namely our own death, shows that the Will’s need to will is no less strong than Reason’s need to think; in both instances the mind transcends its own natural limitations, either by asking unanswerable questions or by projecting itself into a future which, for the willing subject, will never be.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    It has no future but itself—
    Its infinite contain
    Its past—enlightened to perceive
    New periods of pain.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
