Good Morning Macon Pilots and Tenants,

Runway 5/23 will remain open tomorrow for the entire day with no closure. Going forward the FAA-owned NavAids on runway 5/23 will be turned off. This includes the runway end identifier lights on runway 23, the PAPIs for runway 23, the ILS for runway 5/23, and the approach lighting for runway 5. This is in preparation for the extension of runway 5/23.

Additionally, the tentative date for the runway 5/23 extension construction to begin is Monday 3/18/24. With this construction, you can expect runway 5/23 to be closed for extended periods of time, due to construction occurring inside the safety area. As always if you have any questions or concerns you can contact the Airport Operations Department at (478) 219-1145. We appreciate your cooperation and apologize for the inconvenience.
