[ARCHIVED] Forest Lake Airport Construction Update

 Airport Construction Project Update Week 2 (07/30/2024):

Last week the Contractor completed installation of the watermain and sanitary sewer utilities.  Pressure testing of the watermain will be completed this week. Sanitary sewer requires a 30 day mandrel test after installation.  For this reason, paving of the Parking Lot, Taxilane Bravo Extension and Taxiway A3 Extension will be completed the week of August 19th. This means for the Fly-In Breakfast, those surfaces will be gravel only but still usable for visitors.

This week the Contractor will continue hauling in fill material, installation of storm sewer utilities, and begin installation of the granular and aggregate material for the pavement section. They anticipate having all site preparation completed by next week.

If you have any questions or comments about the construction project, please contact Silas at 612-987-0138 or silas.parmar@bolton-menk.com

-------------------------------

Construction of the Taxiway A3 and Taxilane Bravo extension projects will begin on Monday, July 15th and is scheduled to be completed on August 16th.  The project will involve extending Taxiway A3 from parallel Taxiway A to Taxilane Bravo and extending Taxilane Bravo to the north of Taxiway A2.  Sanitary and watermain utilities will be extending along with Taxilane Bravo for future private hangar connections.

 During this time, access to existing Taxiway A3 between parallel Taxiway A and Runway 31 will be closed.
