JUSTIFICATION:

Lawrence Municipal Airport is a general aviation facility located approximately three miles north of the central business district of Lawrence, Kansas. It is about one mile east of the Kansas River and one mile north of Interstate 70. Access to the airport is via U.S. Highway 24/40. The airport currently has approximately 85 based aircraft, two of which are business jets and six are multi-engine. Approximately 40,000 total annual aircraft operations occur at the airport. The airport currently has two paved runways. Primary Runway 15-33 is 5,700 feet long and 100 feet wide. It is served by a Category I precision instrument landing system (ILS) and medium intensity approach lighting system with runway alignment indicator lights (MALSR) on Runway 33. Secondary Runway 1-19 is 3,900 feet long and 75 feet wide. It has only visual approaches. The runways are served by taxiway systems leading to aircraft parking areas and the airport building area. To accommodate current and projected aviation demand in the Lawrence Municipal Airport’s service area and upgrade the facility to current FAA design standards, the following Capital Improvements Plan is recommended
