Hutchinson County Airport Renovations

The Hutchinson County Airport has received over 2 point 8 million dollars to improve their cross runway.

The goal is to make casual traveling easier for business leaders and EMS aircraft during emergencies.

The cross runway has not been paved in 25 years. It’s 4-thousand feet long and the main runway was renovated earlier this year to 63-thousand feet long.

The work is meant to reduce gravel on the runway for aircraft to land safely and not do any damage to the exterior or the engine.

The renovation work will start in the spring and take a month to complete.
