Arctic airport construction: the Canadian experience
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2009
Extract
A necessary ingredient in the improvement of air services in remote Arctic areas is the development of a systematic programme of upgrading airport facilities and services. The provision of such facilities extends outwards from the central points, at which growth is usually concentrated, to the smaller communities with less developed traffic patterns. Programme justification then becomes related more to the achievement of social mobility, rather than only to the need for central points on established routes.
