IT’S BACK TO BUSINESS AS USUAL AT THE ALBUQUERQUE SUNPORT. THE MAIN EAST-WEST RUNWAY IS ONCE AGAIN OPERATIONAL. IT HAD BEEN SHUT DOWN AS 177 CONCRETE SLABS WERE REPAIRED OR REPLACED.
WHILE IT WAS OUT OF COMMISSION, ALL AIR TRAFFIC HAD TO USE A RUNWAY THAT BROUGHT FLIGHTS OVER SEVERAL ALBUQUERQUE NEIGHBORHOODS. REOPENING THE MAIN RUNWAY SHOULD GREATLY REDUCE THE NOISE OVER THE SOUTHEAST PART OF THE CITY.
