The runway is done!

Posted September 10, 2010 at 12:01 am by

Airport manager Dave Ryan says the job is complete – the runway has been closed since Tuesday….here’s his update:

Crack sealing, asphalt repairs and fog sealing is complete on the runway and taxiway “Alpha.”

It looks great! We re-opened at 6:00 am this morning. Construction crews will continue to fog seal near hangars and perform clean-up and striping through Saturday, so please use caution for personnel and equipment on and around the airport. There may be some areas that will require a few more hours to dry especially those around the south hangars and leeward hangars.

I’d like to remind everyone that we are required to wait 30 days for the coating to “cure” before final painting and striping can be accomplished. This will require a couple of nice sunny days and probably a one night only closure around the second week in October.

Thank you so much for patience during this project. Your airport is a jewel and this maintenance helps keep Friday Harbor Airport in top shape! As always, if you have any questions, please contact me.
