After nearly a decade of trying to implement the first fully remote control tower at a U.S. airport in northern Colorado, the company tasked with the project has announced it is giving up on its mission. 

Searidge Technologies, a Canadian company, announced it will no longer continue working on the project at the Northern Colorado Regional Airport. However, the Colorado Department of Transportation, the Federal Aviation Administration and the airport's leadership said they still plan to move forward with the project.
