Reconstruct apron

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded a $5.9 million Project Grant to the Oklahoma City Airport Trust on August 27, 2025, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to reconstruct terminal apron pavement at Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This award funds Phase 2 of a multi-phase reconstruction project, encompassing 10,500 square yards of the existing Terminal Apron—South Gates pavement that has reached the end of its useful life. The total project scope involves reconstructing 38,244 square yards of deteriorated apron pavement across both phases. The project is scheduled for completion by August 26, 2029.

This infrastructure investment directly supports the FAA's strategic objectives of safety, operational excellence, and long-term economic benefits by modernizing critical airport infrastructure. As a local government entity and airport authority, the Oklahoma City Airport Trust will manage the reconstruction work to ensure continued safe and efficient operations of the airport's terminal apron facilities, which are essential to regular aircraft movements and ground operations.
