SRQ airport seeks more wins after $40M, 350-job announcement

On the north and east sides of the airfield at Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, commuters can use Tallevast Road and 15th Street East to avoid traffic on Tamiami Trail and University Parkway.

More than just a shortcut, though, across the runway from the passenger terminal is a developing aviation ecosystem that is gradually reducing the airport’s dependency on revenue generated by commercial airline operations, fostering a balance between passenger and industrial activities that serve the airport and the community alike.
