Kentucky Airport Ups Construction Tempo During Lull
Kentucky's Owensboro-Daviess County Regional Airport is taking care of several infrastructure construction projects amid the Covid-19 induced downturn.

Like many airports, Kentucky’s Owensboro-Daviess County Regional Airport (OWB) is using the Covid-19-induced slowdown in aviation traffic to accelerate its infrastructure projects. The rehabilitation of the airport’s primary 8,000-foot Runway 18/36 was completed as scheduled last month under OWB’s 10-year master plan update, with the replacement of the panel joints and seals along its entire length, as well as re-marking and re-striping. Similar work was done on connecting Taxiway Charlie.
