Graphic representations of the Taxiway Alpha Rehab project — Phase 1 - 2026:

The contractor is mobilizing their equipment and materials into the designated staging areas.

Special consideration will be made to tenants who will be affected by the work area directly between their operation and the closed taxiway. 800 and 820 aprons will be made available to tenants impacted by this project. Please contact the airport for assistance.

Taxiway Alpha is the major parallel taxiway that supports all GA aircraft operations and Boeing 737s towed between the B ramp and C ramp on the west side of the field.

The existing pavement is showing stress, cracking, and rutting. This project includes a major reconstruction of the entirety of the taxiway and will include an LED lighting upgrade, infield drainage improvements, and painting.
