The funding is being made available as a result of President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which was signed into law in November. Rep. Kaptur and House Democrats strongly supported the bill, while 94 percent of House Republicans opposed it. The funding from the Airport Infrastructure Grants program will allow Northwest Ohio airports to address a wide array of short and long-term infrastructure needs – including improvements to runways, taxiways, terminals, and airport-transit connections, as well as new safety and sustainability projects. “President Biden’s jobs and infrastructure bill is already delivering for Northwest Ohio,” said Rep. Kaptur. “By investing in our airports, we are laying a strong foundation for our region’s economic growth. While Republicans in Congress vote against critical funding for jobs and infrastructure, I will continue working to bring these dollars home to Ohio.” Breakdown of Airport Infrastructure Grants program funding for Northwest Ohio Toledo Express Airport: $1,506,440 Erie-Ottawa International Airport: $295,000 Put-in-Bay Airport: $110,000 Middle Bass Island Airport: $110,000 North Bass Island Airport: $110,000 Kelleys Island Land Field Airport: $110,000 More information on the Airport Infrastructure Grants program can be found here. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:37:48Z |
