Reconstruct taxiway

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Western Pacific Region awarded Ontario International Airport Authority a $11.56 million Project Grant on September 18, 2025, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to reconstruct 5,526 linear feet of deteriorated taxiway pavement. This infrastructure improvement project directly addresses critical airport safety and operational needs by replacing existing pavement that has reached the end of its useful life. The grant, with a completion date of September 17, 2029, provides federal funding to enhance the airport's ground infrastructure and ensure continued safe aircraft operations at Ontario International Airport in Ontario, California.

The Airport Improvement Program, administered by the FAA, supports the nationwide system of public-use airports through funding for runway and taxiway reconstruction, terminal modernization, safety enhancements, and related infrastructure improvements. This award represents a strategic investment in transportation infrastructure consistent with the FAA's objectives of maintaining safety and operational excellence at civilian airports nationwide. The project execution timeline of approximately four years is typical for infrastructure construction initiatives under the program and allows for design, permitting, construction, and project closeout activities.
