Shifting the 7300 foot runway to the NE

Runway Shift Project Update: June 3rd 2024

Due to delays in Federal funding the runway shift project construction schedules will be shifted. With that stated, to all the Driggs Pilots, the runway will not be shortened nor will there be a runway closure this year in 2024. The project will indeed be forthcoming and some construction will start in the Fall of 2024, with no ramifications to the runway operations this year. Flying operations will be as usual the rest of 2024. Project completion is still projected to be completed Spring/Summer 2025. More updates to come.
