January Lunch Meeting
Topic: Design and Construction of Runway 10R/28L Replacement Program at Port Columbus International Airport
(Online registration and payment available, see bottom of page.)
The Columbus Regional Airport Authority is currently constructing the Runway 10R/28L Replacement program at Port Columbus International Airport. The new 10,113-foot replacement asphalt runway is located 702 feet south of the existing south runway. Paving was completed in early November 2012 and the navigational aids, airfield signage and lighting are currently being installed in preparation for the FAA flight checks scheduled for March and May 2013. Commissioning date of the replacement runway is June 27, 2013.
The final phase of the replacement runway program will commence immediately following runway commissioning with the conversion of the existing runway to an additional parallel taxiway.
The presentation will cover the unique planning and design issues of the runway program; the coordination efforts of creating the safest working environment for construction immediately adjacent to an active runway; construction coordination amongst multiple contractors and strategies used to overcome the wettest year in Columbus history during our subgrade preparation and base course construction efforts.
