The Glen Innes Airport will be temporarily closed from 4 November 2024 until 31 January 2025, to allow for essential upgrades and improvements.
The works will include:
- Runway rehabilitation on the main bitumen runway
- New and upgraded lighting on the main bitumen runway
- Improved drainage and reshaping of the main runway to enhance water run-off management
Council advises that it is working closely with NSW Health, NSW Ambulance, and NSW Police to ensure aeromedical services and emergency operations continue uninterrupted. Should the works be completed ahead of schedule, the airport will reopen earlier.
