Groundbreaking for New Airport Terminal Set for Thursday
Correction: Previous information on expansion of runway was incorrect. The renovations did not expand the runway.
A groundbreaking ceremony for the new terminal at the Anderson Regional Airport is set for Thursday, beginng at 10 a.m. at the site of the new building. As part of the vent, there will also be a ribbon-cutting for the new runway, which has been closed for reconstruction and repairs since Aug. 20.
The new airport terminal is being paid for mostly from funds leftover from the 2017 general fund. Around $1.5 million is being used to match another $2 million in federal and state grants. The $1 million in repairs/renovation/extension of the runway is also being paid for from the 2017 funds.
