I forgot the specifics, but more than once in the last few months, when speaking to this, they've said how it is critical for the airport's future plans and will need to be closely coordinated with them. I believe it would include a new exit opposite the arterial up towards the back side of the airport.
If they are moving ahead with the roundabout in 2026, does that imply that the airport's plans are also moving ahead? Should we expect to see more information on this, or is this just wishful thinking?

I’m aware of some plans YSJ had relating to that roundabout but am in no position to say and don’t want to start rumours. Been waiting for some overdue news for several months now, so I’m not sure where things are at and things could be totally different now. I was told we’d probably hear something about it in Feb/March of this year. It sounded positive but I don’t ‘think’ it’s overly exciting so temper your expectations just in case.
