New Jersey’s Monmouth Executive Airport will close next month for a maintenance project involving the entire 7,345-foot length of primary Runway 14/32.

New Jersey’s Monmouth Executive Airport (KBLM) will be closed to fixed-wing aircraft traffic for more than a month due to a runway repair project. Commencing on September 14 and lasting through October 15 (schedule subject to weather), the work will mill and replace the center 40 feet of the entire 7,345-foot length of primary Runway 14/32, as well as resurface the remainder. The $2.7 million project—the majority of which will be covered by state Department of Transportation grants—will also require re-marking the entire runway.

“We’re resurfacing the runway to provide a smoother and more enjoyable arrival and departure experience for everyone flying into and out of Monmouth Executive Airport,” said airport v-p Joe Wall.
