THE Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority (TCAA) has Okayed
the construction of an international airport in Mugumu town of Serengeti
District, Mara Region.
Serengeti District Council Chairman Mr John Ng'oina has
confirmed the latest reports over the much awaited project with the 'Sunday
News'.
"We have just got information from TCAA this morning that
they have received permission for the construction of the airport and this is
good news to Serengeti people and Mara in general," Mr Ng'oina said on Thursday.
Late last month TCAA sent experts to verify a plot allocated for
the construction of the airport in the new ward of Uwanja wa Ndege, on the
outskirts of Mugumu town centre. "The permission is a clear testimony that
the area that we have allocated is fit for construction of the international
airport", he said.
The council he said is waiting for permission from the National
Environmental Management Council (NEMC) before the actual construction really
starts.
