Community Advisory - Runway 12-30 Rehabilitation Project

ANNOUNCEMENT

 

RUNWAY 12-30 REHABILITATION PROJECT AT OAKLAND INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

SEPTEMBER 11 - SEPTEMBER 25, 2017

 

ALTERNATE ACTIVITIES FOR AIRPORT NEIGHBORS DURING CONSTRUCTION

 

As many of you are aware, the Port of Oakland (Port) will be rehabilitating Runway 12-30 at Oakland International Airport (OAK) for two weeks from Monday, September 11, 2017, through early morning on Monday, September 25, 2017.  Port staff has participated in a series of meetings with residents of neighboring cities and other project stakeholders to inform attendees of the planned construction activities.  Port staff are aware of noise-related concerns expressed by some neighbors due to the general construction and the anticipated relocation of aircraft activity at the airport during the project.  Accordingly, the Port is arranging to provide neighbors of OAK with “escape” opportunities during the two‑week runway closure, including tickets to local movies theaters, museums, and possibly other venues.

If you are one of the neighbors impacted by the Runway 12-30 Rehabilitation Project and would like to utilize these “escape” opportunities, please contact the following offices for more information:
