Stratford Bridgeport airport plan calls for runway extension
A joint study urges extending the main runway from 4,700 to 5,300 feet with possible future growth to 6,000 feet. Stratford would not fund the work. Bridgeport, state and federal agencies would share costs. The plan includes relocating Main Street and Lordship Road, creating clear zones, preserving beach access for recreation, and forming a seven member airport commission with terms of four years.
