    Nelson Airport's given notice to its city council, of a plan to extend the main runway

    Nelson Airport's given notice to its city council, of a plan to extend the main runway


    Independent Commissioners recommended approving the airport's planning changes for a 163-metre extension in December.

    Nelson Airport decided to accept the recommendations in full yesterday.

    Its notice or requirement would designate land required for a future northern runway extension and update the airport's noise control boundaries.

    Currently, airlines have to offload passengers or cargo in some weather conditions due to the short runway.
