August 31, 2012 - Concrete Paving Completed on Intersection!

August 31, 2012 - Concrete Paving Completed on the Runway 1/19 and 7/25 Intersection:

The contractor reached a major project milestone today!  Concrete paving on the critical Runway 1/19 and 7/25 Intersection was completed today.  The contractor will transition to Bituminous Shoulder and Runway transition paving next week.  Sawing and sealing of joints and shoulder grading operations will also continue next week.

The original project sequence of construction planned for daily closures of the Runway intersection to complete the joint sawing and sealing.  In order to minimize daily disruption to air traffic with daily closures and increase safety, we have elected to extend the intersection closure phase by one week.  This will permit the uninterrupted work on completing these necessary work items with a full closure.  We are tentatively scheduled to transition back to the full Runway 7/25 length on Saturday, September 15, 2012 at 11:00 pm to Sunday, September 16, 2012 at 4:00 pm.  During this time Runway 7/25 will be closed to all traffic.  Please check back to this web site for updates as they become available.
