This Sunday, Florida’s Naples Airport (KAPF) will embark on a long-term drainage project that will involve temporary overnight closures of Runway 5/23 and portions of Taxiway A.

The project will replace existing open drainage swales alongside the runway with a piped underground stormwater retention system. According to the airport authority, this improvement will eliminate standing water in the aftermath of storms and provide increased aircraft safety while reducing bird activity near the runway.
