Norfolk Airport Begins $21.7M Intersection Upgrade Near Runway

Several U.S. airports are undergoing significant infrastructure improvements to enhance safety, efficiency, and passenger experience. Denver International Airport, home to the longest commercial runway in the country, is in the final phase of a major terminal renovation and expansion project aimed at accommodating increased passenger traffic, with completion expected by 2027. Beatrice Municipal Airport is improving its taxiways and adding a new fuel tank to boost safety and operational efficiency, with construction scheduled to finish by November 2025. Norfolk International Airport is undertaking a $21.7 million project to improve roadways, including building a new four-way intersection and realigning Robin Hood Road by closing an inactive runway, to better handle growing traffic and support a nearly $1 billion modernization effort. This project, largely funded by FAA grants, is expected to be completed by winter 2026-2027 and includes plans for a consolidated car rental facility and enhanced signage. Airport officials highlight these upgrades as essential for adapting to increased passenger volumes and improving overall airport access and customer experience.
