Boucher details progress on several area airports
Congressman Rick Boucher outlines seven regional airport upgrades in Southwest Virginia to lure corporate investment. Projects include Virginia Highlands Airport expansion with a new 3,380 foot runway, Lonesome Pine Airport redevelopment, and Mountain Empire Airport plans to extend runways to 4,800 feet. FAA funding and state-local cost shares drive progress across Wise, Smyth, and Washington County sites near industrial parks and Route 460 access.
