Easton Airport Airfield Modernization Program Update: Schedule Change and Revised Timeline

October 15, 2025/Joe Ciccanti

For the remainder of 2025, there will be no planned runway closures in 2025 related to the Easton Airport Airfield Modernization project. All previously noted December 2025 and January/February 2026 runway closures are canceled. Operational impacts and runway closures will now take place in 2026. New dates and timelines will be shared in the coming months as construction schedules are finalized. The scope of the work for the next phase remain the same, including the electrical infrastructure upgrade and Runway 15/33 rehabilitation, according to Easton Airport officials.

 

Additional Information from Easton Airport:

The scope of work for the next phase remains the same:

Electrical Infrastructure Upgrade: This will involve installing a new electrical vault and regulators, running new conduit for the entire length of the new airfield configuration, and new airfield lighting control systems.

Runway 15/33 Rehabilitation: This runway will receive necessary rehabilitation, including filling existing cracks, applying a seal coat, and fresh paint. This is vital because Runway 15/33 will see more air traffic in the coming years as we progress through our program.

We understand these closures may be inconvenient, but they are necessary to make these critical improvements.

Project updates will be sent regularly via email, text message, website, social media, and advisory board meetings.

Check NOTAMs frequently.
