The city of Markham in Ontario, Canada, offers a complex transportation infrastructure. These include airports, highways, public transit, regional roads, municipality-funded roads, and train services. ==Air== Due to Markham's proximity to Toronto, Markham residents use Toronto Pearson International Airport in order to travel to various international destinations. However, the city of Markham itself does provide local alternative to Pearson. There are two airports in Markham, operated by two different operators. These are Toronto/Buttonville Municipal Airport and Toronto/Markham Airport. Their names are signed under Toronto because of Markham's proximity to Toronto. Operated by Toronto Airways Limited, Toronto/Buttonville Municipal Airport is Canada's 8th busiest airport by aircraft movement in 2006.〔(Transport Canada TP 577 - Aircraft Movement Statistics Annual Report 2006 )〕 The airport is located at the city's west end, at 16th Avenue and Highway 404. Buttonville Municipal Airport is privately owned, and that is until the license expires in 2010. The Greater Toronto Airport Authority (GTAA) has plans to cease the airport operation in 2011〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=GTAA Planning Document )〕 and redirect Markham residents will use the nearby Pickering Airport in Pickering. In 2010 Toronto Airways announced the gradual closure of the airport (by 2016) and redevelopment of the airport site.〔Airport to become business park, Markham Economist and Sun, September 3, 2009, p1,3〕 As Pickering Airport remains unbuilt, tenants and users will need to find an alternate site. Owners of the current airport hope to relocate somewhere within York Region. Buttonville Municipal Airport currently offers domestic flights and flights for United States destinations. Operators using the airport include NexJet Aviation Inc, Million Air, Executive Edge Air Charter, Aviation Limited and Canadian Flyers International. The airport also offers flight school hosted by the Seneca Community College. The Toronto/Markham Airport is located at the northeastern end of the city, at Highway 48 and 19th Avenue. It is operated privately by Markham Airport Incorporated and owned by the Thomson family. Further growth of this airport is currently being explored. There is only one heliport in Markham. The Toronto/Markham Stouffville heliport is located on the roof of the Markham Stouffville Hospital in the eastern end of city, at Highway 7 and Bur Oak Avenue. The heliport is privately owned, with ownership shared between Markham and Whitchurch-Stouffville. The pad will move to the roof when the new hospital expansion is completed in 2014.〔http://www.msh.on.ca/expansion/updates〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The city of Markham in Ontario, Canada, offers a complex transportation infrastructure.
