Close the Edmonton City Centre Airport (YXD) Petition: Signature List Feed http://gopetition.com/signatures/close-the-edmonton-city-centre-airport-yxd.html Online petition signatures en-us Sun, 26 Apr 2026 08:18 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Mr. Terrence Taylor [Signature #41] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/17969549?utm_medium=rss This should never have happened. Other major cities around the world are buying very expensive land near their downtown core to build/expand airports. We already have one near our downtown core and we are closing it in favor of our Int'l Airport, which is 34kms. away! There is no foresight in Edmonton!

If it is to stay open, then not one single taxpayer dollar should be used to support this site. Let the rich cry babies and the northern communities pay for it.

With the Anthony Henday it now takes significant time off the travel to the International Airport.

It is vital to keeping the north connected. If Edmonton wishes to remain the gateway to the north, we have to ensure the gate swings open when we need it.

NO MORE AIR POLUTION in the area!
NO MORE HIGHT RESTRICTION ALL OVER THE CITY of Edmonton!

Closing the City Centre Airport would allow Nait to expand next to its current campus. Allow construction of new towers in the downtown core to reach new heights. That is essential for a city so focused on reviatlizing the downtown. Regardless of what people think, a far more modern taller skyline would accelerate growth in the downtown core. This would do wonders for combating urban decay, and urban sprawl.

Use it for residential, commercial, nait residence, or rexall. Just get rid of that airport.

With the ring road nearing completion, it would not be that difficult for relocating traffic to the International Airport.

1) Stop ALL scheduled air service to the city centre airport effective January 1, 2008 - no exceptions.

2) Develop a plan for the staged closure of said airport to all trraffic, and

3) Allow the city to sell or re-devlop the city cejntre airport lands in thge best interests of the city.

Downtown is RESTRICTED in terms of development because of the height requirements. How many cities have CLOSED their urban airports because of the plethora of issues that surround them?
