The grant funding from ALDOT will directly impact seven airports in our area.
The grants are part of ALDOT’s Alabama Airport Improvement Funding Program. The program provides financial assistance and technical support to public-use airports across the state.
“Local airports are critical to connecting our communities and supporting Alabama’s economy,” said Frank Farmer, Bureau Chief of ALDOT’s Aeronautics Bureau. “This funding helps strengthen infrastructure, improve safety and support essential air services in all parts of the state.”
The Alabama Airport Improvement Funding Program was established to assist airports with the planning, construction and maintenance of aviation facilities.
