FAAN shuts down MMA runway for rehabilitation
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria has closed Runway 18R/36L at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja, for rehabilitation.
The closure started from 3:00 a.m. on Monday. It will end at 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday.
The shutdown was announced in a statement.
The closure is due to ongoing rehabilitation work (asphalt phase) at the A2 Taxiway Link of the runway.
The work is part of ongoing efforts to ensure that the runway remains in optimal condition.
“There will be no disruption to flight operations during this period as all flights would be redirected to the alternative runway, 18L/36R,” said the statement.
