The Penn State Board of
Trustees finance committee has recommended the full board approve $5.6
million in upgrades to University Park Airport and $2 million in
renovations to the Lasch Football Building.
The upgrades include replacing roughly 378 lights along with wiring, cabling and circuitry along the airport's taxiways.
The
university says the existing lights have reached the end of their
lifespan and the circuitry requires increasing maintenance. The new
lights will feature energy efficient LED technology.
The
university also intends to replace some asphalt and demolish some
hangars and hangar foundations. The project includes installation of a
new general aviation apron, three parking lots, storm water management
facilities, lighting, an access road, general grading, erosion and
sediment controls, and signing and marking elements.
