Washington DC<\/b><\/i>
\n\u2013 U.S. Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley today announced that the City of
\nSalem will receive a $850,000 federal grant to initiate regional commercial air
\nservice at the Salem Airport. <\/p>\n

\n

\u201cRegional air service
\nthrough small airports just like this one in Oregon\u2019s capital city are crucial
\nto our state\u2019s economy,\u201d Wyden said. \u201cI am gratified to see these dollars go toward expanding regional air
\nservice in Salem to have a more accessible option for travel in and out of the
\nMid-Willamette Valley. Investing in smaller airports like the Salem
\nAirport lays the groundwork to continue to support our state\u2019s economic growth
\ny el turismo\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cRegional airports
\nserve an important role in supporting Oregon\u2019s economy and by expanding
\nservice, they increase opportunities for business and Oregonians,\u201d Merkley
\nsaid.?\u201cI am happy to see this funding
\ngoing to the Salem Airport to recruit a commercial airline provider and expand
\ntheir air service.?I look forward to seeing the results!\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The City of Salem will receive $850,000 from the U.S.
\nDepartment of Transportation\u2019s Small Community Air Service Development Program
\nto recruit, initiate, and support new air service to Los Angeles, Calif., San
\nFrancisco, Calif., Las Vegas, Nev., and Phoenix, Ariz. <\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI would like to
\nthank the senators for their support for this grant,\u201d Salem Mayor Chuck
\nBennett said. \u201cThis money is an
\nimportant step in the City of Salem getting back commercial air. Commercial air
\nwill support and grow the Mid-Willamette Valley economy, increase tourism,
\nreduce traffic and congestion along the I-5 corridor, and create less
\ndependence on the Portland International Airport.\u201d<\/p>\n

 
\u201cCommercial air
\nservice is the jet fuel needed to create a diversified and vibrant regional economy\u2014
\nproviding smart and strategic economic development solutions around affordable
\nand accessible travel options, talent and investment recruitment, carbon
\nfootprint reduction and so much more,\u201d Travel Salem CEO Angie Onyewuchi
\ndicho.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
