Airport Master Plan
Background Information:
In October 2020 the city initiated a traffic study to assess the implications of having a new entrance to the Gary Job Corp facility off of Airport Drive which is currently the single entrance and exit to the airport. The traffic study provided conceptual designs for an efficient configuration of the possible new entrance with improvements to Airport Drive. Additionally, the design will provide for a direct connection to the north section of FM 110 which is under construction.
In 2021, Garver was selected to perform preliminary engineering as the most highly qualified due their experience and qualifications developing the airport master plan. Contract 221-195 for preliminary engineering started in August 2021 and is now complete. This change in service is to continue the design through the detail stages to completion. The estimated construction cost is approximately $2.3M. The timeline for construction is fiscal year 2024 but is subject to funding.
