93.3 KWTO Keeping Watch Over the Ozarks
Improvements are coming for private plane traffic at the Springfield Branson National Airport.
Renovation of the general aviation terminal should begin this Summer. The GA terminal is where privately owned aircraft load and unload passengers, and it’s also where those aircraft are fueled and serviced.
The terminal was built in 1990 and airport leaders say it’s too small for current demand.
The project includes updated restrooms, expansion of the public administration area and pilot lounge, and the addition of a large public community room.
Construction should take about a year to complete.
