Santa Monica Airport Temporarily Closes Runway For Consultation

The 12 acres of tie-downs at Santa Monica Airport will eventually be turned into parks

This Thursday, June 1st, the runway will be closed from 11 pm until Friday, June 2nd, at 7 am.  The runway will be closed to provide consulting firm AECOM the opportunity to conduct “boring” tests that are required as part of the geotechnical analysis needed for the new proposed taxi ways.  For us non-engineers, this means AECOM needs to drill holes, take samples, and test the soil conditions in order to construct the new taxiways appropriately.
