Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) has launched a nearly $19 million, five-month construction project to rebuild segments of taxiways at Van Nuys Airport (KVNY), which will cause overnight operation disruptions. Under repair is Taxiway C from Runway 16R/34L to 16L/34R; Taxiways H, M, and N; and Taxiway P between Taxiway B and Runway 16R/34L.

This has resulted in overnight closures to Runway 16R/34L this week. Starting on Sunday at 10:30 p.m. PST, the runway will be closed for 80 consecutive hours—through 6 a.m. on Thursday. This will be followed by closures of similar duration starting on November 16 and November 30.
