Forest Lake: Construction starts on airport taxiway expansion
Construction started Monday at the Forest Lake Airport, where crews are extending the airport’s taxiway and building taxilane extensions. The $721,789 project, scheduled to be completed on Aug. 16, will connect the airport’s south hangar area directly to parallel Taxiway A, said City Administrator Kristina Handt. That will help “ease congestion around the existing singular access point to Taxiway A and Runway 13/31,” she said.
