The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has closed Runway 18R/36L at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos for rehabilitation. The closure, which began at 3 am on Monday, is part of ongoing efforts to ensure the runway remains in optimal condition.
The Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection at FAAN, Mrs. Obiageli Orah, explained that the closure is due to the ongoing rehabilitation work (asphalt phase) at the A2 Taxiwaylink of the runway. To minimize disruptions, all flights will be redirected to the alternative runway, 18L/36R.
FAAN emphasized its commitment to the safety, security, and comfort of airport users. The authority is working to ensure that the rehabilitation work does not disrupt flight operations.
The Murtala Muhammed International Airport is one of the busiest airports in Nigeria, and the rehabilitation of the runway is crucial to maintaining the safety and efficiency of flight operations. FAAN’s efforts to upgrade and maintain the airport’s infrastructure are part of its ongoing commitment to providing world-class airport services.
The closure of the runway may cause some inconvenience to travelers, but it is necessary to ensure the long-term safety and efficiency of flight operations. FAAN has assured airport users that the rehabilitation work will be completed as quickly as possible to minimize disruptions.
In recent years, FAAN has made significant investments in upgrading and maintaining the infrastructure at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport. These efforts have improved the safety, security, and efficiency of flight operations, making the airport a hub for regional and international air travel.
The rehabilitation of Runway 18R/36L is just one example of FAAN’s ongoing commitment to maintaining and upgrading the airport’s infrastructure. The authority’s efforts are aimed at providing world-class airport services that meet the needs of travelers and support the growth of the aviation industry in Nigeria.
