Bennet | B001267 | www.bennet.senate.gov | bennet | https://www.bennet.senate.gov/news/page/ | scraper | Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senators Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper celebrated $9.7 million in funding from the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Airport Improvement Program (AIP) for seven airports in Colorado. These investments are made possible through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which has provided over $400 million to airports across the state. “I’m grateful DOT is supporting Colorado’s airports as they work to meet our state’s changing needs,” said Bennet. “These dollars will help improve safety and capacity so our airports can better connect our communities and fuel our economy.” “Colorado’s airports are a lifeline to rural communities,” said Hickenlooper. “Our Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is repairing roads and runways at airports across the state to keep those communities connected.” This funding includes: $6,366,686 for Denver International Airport to repair existing paved taxiway; $1,200,000 for the Yampa Valley Airport for a new Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting vehicle and equipment to enhance passenger safety; $615,834 for the Wray Municipal Airport to construct a new taxiway in line with current safety standards; $583,377 for the Telluride Regional Airport to construct apron pavement, where airplanes park and unload passengers; $513,559 for the Greeley-Weld County Airport Authority to repair apron pavement; $365,574 for the Cortez Municipal Airport to reconstruct a terminal access road; and $134,347 for the Monte Vista Municipal Airport to extend paved taxiway in line with current safety standards | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:32:29Z |
