Runway Extension Project

The Runway Extension Project involves lengthening an existing airport runway to accommodate larger or more aircraft, improve safety, and enhance operational efficiency. This process includes planning, environmental assessments, expanding or modifying the runway surface, and ensuring proper drainage and navigation aids. Extending a runway allows airlines to operate more directly to destinations, reduces delays, and supports airport growth. The project must balance construction challenges with community impact and environmental concerns, ensuring that the increased capacity benefits travel and economic development while maintaining safety standards.
