Oceana NAS Runway & Lighting Repairs
This $67 million project consisted of the repair of Runway 14L-32R and associated electrical airfield lighting, as well as new, 4-foot-wide taxiway shoulders constructed in areas where the edge lighting systems were modified.
Overview
Lane demolished the existing Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement and repaired with new PCC on Runway 14L-32R. The new taxiways were constructed in PCC between the runway and the hold-short line, with the remainder of the widening being asphalt concrete (AC). Lane replaced a portion of the Hold Apron pavement at the Runway 14L and the Hold Apron at the Runway 32R end to meet revised Runway 32R grading. It also replaced the arresting gear pavement protection system, and rehabilitated and widened the asphalt concrete pavement around the arresting gear (A/G) equipment, tape wedges, and access roads.
The finished elevation of the runway centerline profile was raised between 3 to 6 inches throughout the length of the runway.
The electrical airfield lighting for runway 14L-32R consisting of edge lights, threshold lights, distance remaining markers and arresting gear markers were demolished and replaced with LED-based light fixtures. The lighting upgrades included new concrete foundations, light base cans, conduit and wire.
