Edinbugh Airport
Nov 2025
Edinburgh Airport is investing £30 million to deliver essential runway rehabilitation works that will ensure continued safety and reliability. The runway, last significantly upgraded in 2008, will be completely resurfaced. The new surface will future-proof the runway and introduce new technology to improve operations and sustainability.
The works include:
- A full asphalt overlay of our 1.6-mile runway
- Upgrading all 1,200 runway lights from tungsten to LEDs
- Improved drainage for safer operations
- New weather sensors to provide accurate temperature readings and reduce de-icer use, improving water quality
