Jabiru Airport Saved from Demolition, Securing Kakadu's Tourism Future
Jabiru Airport, a crucial gateway to Kakadu National Park in Australia's Northern Territory, has been saved from demolition. The Gundjeihmi Aboriginal Corporation (GAC), representing the Mirarr people, has taken over operations, preventing the airport's planned destruction. This move ensures continued access to Kakadu, a world heritage-listed site, and supports the region's ambition to become a post-mining tourism hub. The airport, previously tied to the Ranger uranium mine, is vital for tourism and local communities, especially during the wet season when it serves as a critical supply route.
