Pease Airport Looks to Start Expansion

The Portland Press Herald is reporting that the Pease Development Authority is ready to move forward with a major expansion to the terminal at the Pease Airport.

A $5 million expansion to the terminal will be built in order to accomodate an increased number of flights from Skybus, a low-cost airline operator. With work to be completed by next fall, the airport is also hoping that the increased traffic at the airport will attract new businesses to the area.
