The Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded a $6,726,960 Project Grant to the Flathead Municipal Airport Authority, doing business as Glacier Park International Air, on March 21, 2024. This grant, funded through the FAA's Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), will support two key infrastructure projects at Glacier Park International Airport in Kalispell, Montana:
- The construction of a 224-foot taxiway connector to provide improved access to the terminal apron.
- The expansion of the existing terminal apron by an additional 9,375 square yards to meet FAA design standards.
These improvements will enhance the safety, capacity, and operational efficiency of the airport's airside infrastructure, supporting the FAA's strategic goals. The project period for this grant extends through March 20, 2028, allowing for the design, construction, and closeout phases of the work.
