Construct service road

The Federal Aviation Administration Southern Region awarded the Charlotte County Airport Authority $5,694,427.78 on August 25, 2026, under the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117) to construct Phase 2 of a service road project at Punta Gorda Airport, Florida. Phase 2 consists of removal of Golf Course Boulevard from the Runway 15 Object Free Area and construction of 800 feet of gravel service road. The full project will ultimately deliver a new 20,300-foot gravel, non-public use service road to provide designated personnel and vehicles an alternate path to the general aviation apron, bringing the airport into conformity with current standards. The period of performance runs through August 24, 2030. Work is performed at Punta Gorda, Florida.
