Lynchburg Airport Gets $8M Upgrade | Roanoke News

from Roanoke News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Lynchburg Regional Airport is set to transform with an $8 million federal boost, designed to slash bottlenecks and boost accessibility for all travelers. The upgrade includes a wider, automated exit lane from security, a new ADA-compliant elevator, and energy-efficient lighting — all aimed at handling projected passenger growth to 80,000 by 2028. Backed by Senators Warner and Kaine, this funding is part of a $19 million Virginia airport infrastructure push, following a visit from the U.S. Secretary of Transportation that signaled big things ahead.
