Wentworth Aerodrome Upgrade
The Wentworth Aerodrome had a major upgrade during 2020 and 2021. This upgrade included moving the main runway further north, extending the length and sealing the landing surface. See below for a visual storyline of the upgrade.
8 September 2021
Completion of works is anticipated for January 2022 weather permitting and subject to supply of materials and/or COVID-19 related delays.
Runway 08/26 will remain open with periodic closures where required to accommodate the construction program.
Council will endeavour to keep closures to the minimum where possible.
All aerodrome users must check the Air Services website for the latest information on the operational status of the aerodrome prior to use.
NOTAM C38/21 is available now on the Air Services website for the closure.

Been quite a while since we provided some updates, but here you go. They are worth it as lots of things have been happening. Spay seal down and asphalt to go down next week.
