Construct taxilane

The City of Rogers received a $3.78 million Project Grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under the Airport Improvement Program, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Programs, and COVID-19 Airports Programs (CFDA 20.106), awarded on August 15, 2025. This grant funds Phase 1 of a taxilane construction project designed to develop critical airfield infrastructure at Rogers Airport. Specifically, the grant supports the design and construction of 1,575 linear feet of a planned 2,700-foot westside taxilane that will provide essential airfield access to a non-exclusive hangar development area and bring the airport into conformity with current operational standards.

The project is scheduled for completion by August 14, 2029, and will be executed by the City of Rogers Finance Department at the Rogers, Arkansas airport facility. The taxilane construction represents a strategic infrastructure investment aligned with the FAA's objectives of maintaining a safe and efficient nationwide airport system while supporting long-term economic development and civil aeronautics capacity in the region.
