Daviess County Airport breaks ground on $1.2 million taxilane expansion

DAVIESS CO.— The Daviess County Airport officially broke ground yesterday on a new taxilane and access road, marking a significant step forward in its long-term growth and development plans.

The project, valued at just under $1.2 million, is entirely funded by state and federal grant dollars. Construction crews are moving quickly, with officials anticipating the project will be completed by the end of November.

Once finished, the expansion will make the airport “site ready” for new business and private aviation development. Airport officials say the project positions the airport to serve companies better and individuals looking to call Daviess County Airport home for their transportation needs, whether they are building hangars or establishing full aviation operations in Daviess County.

Those interested in snagging prime real estate for future hangar needs or learning more about the land-leasing program and building requirements for this new addition are encouraged to contact the Daviess County Airport directly for details.
