PA $10 Million Investments to Improve 10 Airports

Aviation Transportation Assistance Program Doles Out Serious Airport Bucks

Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf has made $10 million in state investments to support 12 projects at 10 airports through the Aviation Transportation Assistance Program.

"Aviation plays a vital role in keeping our state's economy moving," Governor Wolf said. "These investments will help Pennsylvania's airports operate safely, expand to meet current demands, and sustain growth well into the future." Pennsylvania has 121 public-use aviation facilities including airports, heliports, and seaplane bases, and these new investments will expand aviation-related operational and economic opportunities statewide.

Following is a by-county list of approved aviation projects:

Allegheny County: Pittsburgh International Airport – $2.4 million for continued Commercial Air Cargo facility development. Development includes aircraft and vehicular access and parking, environmental remediation, and continued site preparation.
