Runway Safety Area Project Set to Begin at L.G. Hanscom Field: Runway 5/23 to Close During Construction
Aug 12, 2008 09:37

The Massachusetts Port Authority Massport today announced that construction for the Runway 5/23 Safety Area RSA at L.G. Hanscom Field is scheduled to begin in mid-August. Construction is expected to last approximately 3 months and will include the periodic closure of Runway 5/23 during normal construction hours. Most of the Runway 5/23 traffic consists of the smaller aircraft that use the airport. When Runway 5/23 is closed, Runway 11/29 will handle all air traffic. Massport is undertaking this $3 million safety project to comply with Federal Aviation Administration FAA RSA regulations. The RSA project does not require any additional pavement and it will not change how the runway is used. It involves re-grading of pervious areas at the two runway ends. Residents are encouraged to contact Massport’s Office of Government and Community Affairs at 617-568-3711 with any questions or concerns.
