Construct taxiway

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded $894,736.84 on September 3, 2025, to the Greeley Weld County Airport Authority under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to fund Phase 1 design activities for taxiway construction at Greeley Weld County Airport in Greeley, Colorado. The project will support the design and eventual construction of two new taxiways—a 1,050-foot Taxiway E and a 1,000-foot Taxiway B—to bring the airport into conformity with current Federal Aviation Administration standards. The award period extends through September 2, 2029, and is administered by the FAA's Northwest Mountain Region office.

The design phase funded under this grant represents the initial stage of a broader airport infrastructure modernization initiative. Upon completion of design work, the project will advance to construction phases to ensure the airport maintains adequate taxiway infrastructure to support regional aviation operations and meet contemporary safety and operational standards established by the Federal Aviation Administration.
