Two-dozen airports in Kansas won the federal grant lottery and will be investing $14 million in repair, update and expansion projects.
The biggest recipients in western Kansas included Garden City Regional Airport, which is in line for $1.7 million to install pavement markings to upgrade airfield safety. The Hays Regional Airport was awarded $1.4 million for acquisition of runway guidance systems.
“Kansas airports are vital to the regional economies throughout Kansas, connecting communities large and small and providing necessary supplies and emergency medical services for rural areas across the state,” said U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan.
