First Aircraft to land on new runway at Skagit

Cessna N54635 makes the first landing on the new surface of Runway 10-28 at Skagit Regional Airport shortly after 4 p.m. on Friday, June 17.

Burlington – Freshly repaved and restriped, the main runway at Skagit Regional Airport reopened at 4 p.m. on Friday after a six-week construction closure.

The construction work was a major portion of the Runway 10-28 Overlay and Underdrain Improvements project, which began May 3. Interwest Construction Inc., Burlington, is the general contractor for the $2.5 million project, while the Bellingham office of Precision Approach Engineering designed the project and is providing project oversight. According to project records, 82 people have taken part in the work.

The project replaced the runway’s failed underdrain system with a new system located outside the boundaries of the runway pavement. Then a 2-inch-thick maintenance overlay, compatible with the pending crown conversion, was placed on the runway to limit further deterioration of the surface. Lenses on runway edge lights in the last 2,000 of the runway were replaced, and wildlife deterrent fencing is being installed. Detail work will continue next week on airport’s the alternate runway.

The project will require one final, brief closure of Runways 10-28 and 04-22 in late July to complete the final coat of pavement marking and restore the Runway 04 threshold to its original position
