The improvements – not to be confused with this month’s impending closure for other infrastructural upgrades such as new milling and paving – center around a system that would allow planes to better access the runway during times of low visibility: a common occurrence on the foggy North Coast. The specific upgrade is called an Instrument Landing System Category II.
Next Monday, the airport that serves Humboldt County will close for 12 days during runway construction. Travelers will need to find alternatives while work shuts off the California Redwood Coast-Humboldt County Airport (ACV). The airport will be closed from 12:30 a.m. on Aug. 14th until 11:30 p.m. on Aug. 25th.
