Description:

The West Virginia International Yeager Airport (CRW) Airfield, Safety, and Terminal Improvement Project (Proposed Project), as proposed by the Central West Virginia Regional Airport Authority (Airport Authority), would construct various airfield, safety, and terminal improvements

To address airport safety in the near term (Phase 1), the Airport Authority proposes to shift and extend Runway 5-23 to the northeast (Runway 23 end) to allow for a Runway Safety Area (RSA) that meets Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) standards on both ends of the runway and to meet existing runway length requirements of 7,000 feet based on the existing operating aircraft fleet and destinations served at CRW. The Airport Authority also proposes to construct a new terminal complex to address terminal area inefficiencies that include an aging and poorly configured terminal facility; relocate taxiways adjacent to the terminal area that are not consistent with FAA design standards; and provide modern amenities that allow for a better passenger experience.

To address long-term capacity needs, Phase 2 of the Proposed Project would include a further shift and extension of Runway 5-23 to 8,000 feet, relocation of the remaining portions of Taxiway A that do not meet FAA design standards, and the development of an additional gate at the terminal facility, which may require the relocation of the existing Airport Traffic Control Tower.
