Governor Laura Kelly announced Friday that four Kansas communities have secured more than $1.9 million in infrastructure funding to improve local airports. The communities secured more than $1.7 million in federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) funding from the Federal Aviation Administration’s Airport Infrastructure Grant (AIG) program. Additionally, these projects are receiving almost $200,000 in matching funds from the Kansas Infrastructure Hub and Build Kansas Fund. “Kansas’ airports play a vital role in connecting businesses to more opportunities and strengthening local economies,” Governor Laura Kelly said. “These four projects will improve airport infrastructure while strengthening the state’s transportation network.”
