Rapid Progress On Runway 15 Construction At Dominica International Airport.
DOMINICA - Samuel Johnson, the CEO of the International Airport Development Company, recently shared updates on the ongoing airport project for the Commonwealth of Dominica.
Covering a vast area of 22000 square meters, this project holds promise for boosting tourism in the region once it’s completed.
Key attention is being paid to Runway 15, which, due to wind patterns, is identified as the primary spot for aircraft takeoffs and landings. Presently, efforts are concentrated on clearing and preparing this section before advancing to complete the entire runway.
“The runway is designed to enable landing and takeoff in both directions and because of the winds, we expect 95% of the time your landing will be from runway 15,” he stated.
Johnson elaborated on the excavation and alignment processes crucial for constructing the runway, highlighting its dual functionality for both takeoffs and landings.
In addition to runway development, plans include constructing a parallel taxiway to enhance the airport’s capacity for accommodating multiple aircraft simultaneously, as MMC Development Ltd., the airport project developer, is overseeing these efforts.
Samuel Johnson also mentioned that two other areas are under construction: the Anzime and Crapo Hall quarry sites. These sites have been established to supply extra materials and aggregate for the project’s support.
Johnson also addressed safety concerns by mentioning the implementation of GPS tracking for on-site drivers.
“We’ve gotten feedback in terms of the drivers and the truckers moving on the site, and we’ve worked closely with the contractor and the developer to ensure that there is GPS tracking on the drivers.”
Emphasizing the importance of minimizing disruptions to local communities and tourism, Johnson underscored the collaboration with the Public Works Department to address any road damage caused by the project prompt
