20 Year Master Plan

One of the reasons cited for a delay in progress on the Master Plan was the need for information from the New England Regional Air Study Plan. Marc Champigny of Louis Berger, company doing the study, sent me the following e-mail... Looks like we are ready to proceed.


Mr. Randell, The NERASP project has delivered the base forecasts and detailed descriptions of passenger demand to all of the study airports, including Worcester. This was the essential data that the Worcester Master Plan wanted to include in its analysis of its future needs. There are additional analysis being performed to test the effect of changes in access or airline behavior on the ultmate size of Worcester's market in a long term time fame. While this information will not be available for another four to six weeks, it is not an impediment to continuing progress on Worcester's master plan. This was the concensus of the recent Technical Advisory Committee on March 30, 2006. Thank you for your inquiry.
