The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded a $16,467,888.89 project grant to the Lehigh Northampton Airport Authority doing business as Lehigh Valley International Airport. The grant is part of the Airport Improvement Program, COVID-19 Airports Programs, and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Programs (CFDA 20.106) to rehabilitate 7,600 feet of runway and the existing runway lighting system at Allentown, Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley International Airport. Work will be completed between September 2022 and September 2026 and is intended to enhance safe airfield operations during low visibility conditions by replacing aging runway infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life. The grant will fund the final phase of construction for the runway lighting and the tenth phase for paving shoulders and blast pads on Runway 6/24 and correcting entrance taxiway geometry.
