Taro Island is home to the Choiseul Bay Airport, served by Solomon Airlines with flights to Gizo and other destinations.[1] In September 2012, groundbreaking for the construction of a police housing project began. The project will be supervised by the Choiseul Province police board, and will strengthen police presence on the island.[2] The island is very vulnerable to sea level rise. In 2016, John A. Church, Colin Woodroffe, and other Australian researchers from CSIRO predicted that Taro Island would become the first provincial capital globally to relocate residents and services due to the threat of sea level rise.[3][4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.solomonairlines.com.au/domesticroutemap.htm|title=Domestic Route Map|publisher=Solomon Airlines|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070127174833/http://www.solomonairlines.com.au/domesticroutemap.htm|archivedate=2007-01-27|accessdate=2007-03-17}} 2. ^Taro Police Housing Project {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.is/20130202191750/http://www.solomonstarnews.com/news/national/15798-taro-police-housing-project-underway |date=2013-02-02 }}, By Jennifer Kakai, 24 August 2012, Solomon Star News 3. ^{{cite news|last1=Peralta|first1=Eyder|title='Window Into The Future': Scientists Document Disappearing Islands|url=https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/05/10/477511597/window-into-the-future-scientists-document-disappearing-islands|accessdate=10 May 2016|work=NPR|date=10 May 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|last1=Albert|first1=Simon|title=Interactions between sea-level rise and wave exposure on reef island dynamics in the Solomon Islands|url=http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/11/5/054011|website=IOP Science|publisher=IOP Publishing|accessdate=9 May 2016}} {{Islands of the Solomon Islands}}{{coord|06|42|41|S|156|23|47|E|display=title|region:SB_type:isle}}{{SolomonIslands-geo-stub}} 2 : Populated places in the Solomon Islands|Islands of the Solomon Islands |
