Reconstruct taxiway

The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Northwest Mountain Region awarded the City of Yuma, Colorado $228,421.05 on June 3, 2026, under the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117) to fund the final phase of taxiway reconstruction at Yuma Airport.

The project reconstructs 1,100 feet of existing Taxiway A2 pavement that has reached the end of its useful life. This grant funds a portion of the final phase; an associated Airport Improvement Program grant funds the remaining eligible portion of the project. The grant is a project grant, with assistance released upon application for reimbursement of expenses.

Performance runs through August 22, 2028, at Yuma, Colorado. The City of Yuma operates Yuma Airport and receives federal grants exclusively as a grant recipient. The taxiway reconstruction is part of a multi-year airport modernization sequence that began with design phase funding in June 2023 and an earlier Airport Improvement Program award in August 2024 covering the first portions of the same taxiway reconstruction.
