Syria's efforts to meet its transport needs through the year 2000 are succeeding even in such disparate subsectors as aviation, pipelines, construction, and storage. Syria easily meets current air travel demand with four domestic airports and an international airport at Damascus, with a second planned for Aleppo. The most urgent requirement in civil aviation is to revise the master plans of all these airports to eliminate obsolete or inefficient physical plants. Syria should modernize its air navigation system by establishing a regional traffic control center in concert with its Arab neighbors and by straightening out flight routes wherever possible. Feasibility studies should be conducted for pipelines between Homs, Al Raqqa, and Aleppo, and for new distribution centers at Damascus and Dera'a.
