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:

    The “second sight” possessed by the Highlanders in Scotland is actually a foreknowledge of future events. I believe they possess this gift because they don’t wear trousers.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    The past is of no importance. The present is of no importance. It is with the future that we have to deal. For the past is what man should not have been. The present is what man ought not to be. The future is what artists are.
    The facts: nothing matters but the facts: worship of the facts leads to everything, to happiness first of all and then to wealth.
    Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure.... Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon.... The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness.
    Henri Lefebvre (b. 1901)
