Opole-Kamień Śląski Airport is a former military airport. Opole (130 thousand inhabitants, 4,5 million in nearby GOP conurbation) and Opolskie voivodship (1,1 million inhabitants) do not have currently any operating airport serving scheduled flights. Its only larger airport is located in Kamień Śląski, 17 kilometers to the south of Opole. It is a former military airport, for some time- privately owned. As it could be easily be adapted to serve regional and international traffic for the densely populated region of Opole and 4,5 million inhabitants of the enormous conurbation of the Upper Silesia Coal Basin, plans were made for such a modernisation. The airport is located 8 kilometers from the A4 motorway connecting Wrocław with the GOP area. It possesses also a railway branch, which makes it possible to provide a rail link to Opole, where a change could be made for the trains to GOP cities, that are very badly served by the rather remotely located Pyrzowice airport. The airport has a concrete runway of 2300 m length and 60 m width.
