Leblanc<\/a>,\u00a0 Dominica\u2019s first premier, in the 1970s.<\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Lennox Honychurch, Le Blanc got the Canadian government \u201cto finance a study for a proposed jet airport aligned across the centre of the island from Warner to the back of Castle Bruce.\u201d However, the findings declared that there was too much cloud cover and high rainfall and the project was abandoned.<\/p>\n<p>In 1989, the Dominica Freedom Party had a plan drawn for an international airport with alignment from Woodfordhill Bay to Bottom Wesley near Sophia Bay.<\/p>\n<p>In 1998, the United Workers Party (UWP) also had a plan drawn for an airport with alignment further inland from behind Woodford Hill village near the Woodford Hill Agricultural Station to end behind Wesley at the back of the former St. Andrews High School.<\/p>\n<p>The Dominica Labour Party, during its 20 years in office, has, on several occasions, dating back to 2013, <a href=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/homepage\/news\/we-will-build-this-international-airport-for-dominica-pm-skerrit\/\">spoken of plans to build an international airport<\/a> for Dominica.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/homepage\/news\/government-to-disburse-payments-for-land-needed-to-build-international-airport\/\">In January this year, Prime Minister Skerrit<\/a> indicated that the government was making progress on the airport which is expected to be constructed from Eden back to the Woodfordhill area and was about to disburse payments to some of the landowners who had concluded negotiations for the construction of the facility.<\/p>\n<p>He said also that a team of Chinese people would be arriving in Dominica in February to begin preparatory works for the construction of the airport.<\/p>\n<p>This plan was thwarted by COVID-19 but according to the Chinese Ambassador, his people will come when the pandemic is over.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_252567\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-252567\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-252567\" src=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-642x426.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-642x426.jpg 642w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-2048x1360.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Machoucherie-Bridge-640x425.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-252567\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Newly constructed bridge at Macoucherie near Macoucherie Estate<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Government of the People\u2019s Republic of China has given its commitment to resume preparation works on the much-talked-about international airport once the COVID-19 pandemic is over.
