New Regional Airport
A new, larger airport is currently under construction which will, when completed, replace the current airport.
The prospect of a new airport for the region has been around for many years. The current St. George airport is land-locked and has no room for expansion. The airport's runway and terminal are too small to accommodate larger aircraft. With the rapid population growth of the area and tourism increasing, the need for a new airport became vital for the city's future.
The new airport is being built approximately 6 miles southeast of the central business district at the site of an abandoned airfield which has not seen air traffic since 1961 and most recently has been used for vehicle drag racing and radio controlled aircraft.
An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was completed in August 2006. The study concluded the impact on the environment and noise pollution would be minimal. Plans for the new airport include a single runway capable of accommodating regional jets as well as other larger airliner-type aircraft. The runway will be oriented at approximately 010/190 degrees. It will initially be 9,300 by 150 feet with future plans for the runway to be extended to 11,500 by 150 feet. The airport will also include an Air Traffic Control Tower, as well as a precision instrument approach, things the current airport does not have which are vital to future demand of air travel.
The new St. George Airport has been partially funded by grants from the FAA totalling $24.2 million. The entire project is expected to cost between $170 million and $190 million dollars. The city broke ground on the new site in October 2008 and completion of the airport is expected in 2011.
