Rehabilitate Taxiways A1, A3 and N

This project rehabilitates three of the existing exit taxiways from Runway 4-22, the primary Airport runway.  Taxiways A-3 and A-4 were constructed in the 1960's and require major structural rehabilitation to the existing asphalt pavement.  Taxiway A-1 will be reviewed for conformance to current design standards for pavement width and it is proposed that the concrete pavement be rehabilitated and widened should this be required to meet standards.  Work on both Taxiways will include drainage, lighting, signage and markings.

General Aviation Apron Rehabilitation

This project rehabilitates and reconstructs the existing aircraft aprons on the south side of the airfield and will include pavement, drainage improvements, electrical improvements and pavement markings.  The configuration of pavement in this area of the airport has evolved by combining former runways, taxiways, aircraft parking and vehicle parking lots.  These paved areas need to be reconfigured to improve safety for both aircraft and vehicle movements.
