Vermont Airport Looks To Complete Taxiway Project
The $6.3 million project includes a new taxiway parallel to the runway, allowing larger aircraft to operate at Rutland-Southern Vermont Regional Airport.

Rutland-Southern Vermont Regional Airport (RUT) has begun the second and final phase of a taxiway program, which it began last year. Phase One, which cost $3.8 million, saw the construction of 1,800 feet of new Taxiway Alpha at the approach end of Runway 1/19. Slated for completion by the end of October, the $2.5 million last phase of the project, which will run parallel to the 5,300-foot main runway, includes lighting, signage, storm drainage and pavement markings. It will replace Taxiway Echo, which will be retained as a maintenance road for ground vehicles.
