HARTFORD Monday afternoon state representatives will hold a press conference and an informational hearing to discuss the decision to keep six Connecticut air control towers open for now.
Six Connecticut airports have been spared a planned June closing of their air traffic control towers, but they still face closure in September from the process of automatic federal cuts known as “sequestration.”
The six towers include: Sikorsky Memorial in Bridgeport, Danbury Municipal, Groton–New London, Hartford-Brainard, Tweed-New Haven, and Waterbury–Oxford.
Fox Connecticut’s Tim Lammers was at the Legislative Office Building in Hartford with more information.
