Conway Municipal Airport
New General Aviation Airport

Client: City of Conway
Location: Conway, Arkansas
Project Cost: $25 million

Project
Garver is helping Conway, Arkansas develop its new general aviation municipal airport. Conway's current airport, Cantrell Field, is too small to accommodate larger jet traffic, and its short runways have been a safety issue. The new airport is located outside the city and will feature a 5,500-foot-long runway, full instrument approaches, full-length parallel taxiway, terminal, fueling facility, and T-hangars. A future phase will expand the runway to its ultimate 7,000-foot length.

The project's first phase is underway. Garver's design includes employing several green features to reduce energy consumption and environmental impact. These include shorter haul distances for earthwork, LED airfield lighting, and landside LEED structural aspects.

Testimonial
"This new airport will be a big part of making Conway that player, that significant player, in Arkansas' future. At the end of the day, this is going to be an economic engine and a job creator."
