South Yorkshire Mayor Oliver Coppard has announced a second Q&A live event to answer questions from residents, businesses and stakeholders regarding the reopening of Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA), as well as the wider vision for South Yorkshire Airport City.
The event, titled Cleared for Take-Off: A Q&A on the Future of DSA is set to take place on Wednesday 12 November between 18:00 and 19:30 at the Cast Theatre, Doncaster.
Chaired by Dan Fell, Chief Executive of Doncaster Chamber of Commerce; the event will allow attendees to hear directly from the mayor about progress made so far, challenges ahead and how the reopening of DSA will fit into South Yorkshire’s plans for growth, connectivity and sustainability.
South Yorkshire’s Mayor, Oliver Coppard, said:Reopening Doncaster Sheffield Airport isn’t just about restoring flights - it’s about unlocking opportunity. DSA is a vital part of our plan to grow South Yorkshire’s economy, improve our connectivity, and build a region where people can stay near, and go far.
The Q&A is a chance for people to hear directly about the journey so far, the challenges ahead, and how we’re working to deliver an airport that works for our communities and our region.
The decision to reopen DSA was made this past September when a 160 million GBP funding package was approved to bring commercial flights back to the region.
