Oakridge State Airport Reopened - Project Completed

The Oakridge State Airport has reopened following completion of the runway rehabilitation project.

(!) The runway width is now 50 feet, and the Declared Distances are:

(!!) Please help ensure safety and maintain the airport by remaining off of the runway and taxiways except for authorized aeronautical uses. Pedestrians and vehicles are not allowed on the runway, taxiways, and the safety areas surrounding these surfaces. Any disturbance to the freshly graded shoulders will compromise the erosion protection.

(!!!) Please contact ODAV prior to use for firefighting activity.

In just 65 days the runway and apron were completely reconstructed, and a second taxiway connector was added. The midfield and runway 9 end turn arounds were improved, and 4 concrete hard stands were added to better serve heavy firefighting aircraft.

A new windsock and segmented circle were added, as well as supplemental windsocks on both runway ends to improve wind indication at this mountain airport. New tiedowns and airfield reflectors complete the improvements.

Thank you for your patience while we maintain this critical aviation facility. Happy and safe flying, Oakridge!
