Logname: 55FWS EAST SIDE TWY GRNT Page I of 3
Resolution No. 4867-12-2017 supporting the design of the East Side Taxiway Improvements Project.
Additionally, a Pavement Condition Index was performed in 2012 which determined that the taxiway
surface for accessing the eastern hangar apron is failing.
Current infrastructure poses a safety hazard due to the taxiway's poor condition no longer being capable
of supporting the larger aircraft design group utilizing the eastern hangars. This project will rehabilitate the
existing taxiway to bring it up to acceptable standards. Furthermore, an additional taxiway will be installed
to improve operational efficiency between the runway environment and eastern hangars, as well as
provide additional infrastructure for future development.
