Runway Overpass

Posted
Editor, Times-Union:

I've been going to respond to the controversy on extending the runway at Warsaw's airport. Here in Tucson we have an underpass for one of our runway/road crossings. A major arterial street/road goes under our air force base main runway. The runway bridge is amazingly narrow and blends in with the roadway bridges that run parallel and nearby.

With railroads and interstates and runways all laying between us Yankees and the border with Mexico, there are few places to get south in the Old Pueblo. The very best solution is a runway overpass. Please consider it.
