Halifax Stanfield International Airport in Nova Scotia, Canada, has completed the first year of its ten-year airfield restoration programme.

The airport is managed and operated by Canadian airport authority, Halifax International Airport Authority (HIAA).

This year, work on the project focused on upgrading deteriorated airfield areas at the airport.

The 2017 project included modification of the South Apron, Taxiway Alpha and Runway 05/23 at Halifax Stanfield Airport.

From June to October, construction work was carried out to maintain the integrity of the airport's high-traffic areas, as well as ensure long-term safety and reliability.

A schedule was designed to minimise the risk associated with adverse weather conditions, such as high winds and / or low visibility.
