Santa Monica Advances Runway Shortening Project
By December, the city of Santa Monica hopes to complete the project to shorten the runway at Santa Monica Airport to 3,500 feet.

The city of Santa Monica, California, has awarded a design-build contract to Aecom/Aeroplex to design the runway-shortening project at Santa Monica Airport, which will transform the landing strip from the current 4,973 feet to 3,500 feet. The shortening is permitted under a consent decree that the city signed with the FAA; the decree also allows the city to close the airport after Dec. 31, 2028.
