Airlines and passengers at San Francisco International Airport are experiencing widespread disruption as runway 28L undergoes 20 days of construction work. The runway was closed on 7th September so that a new base layer could be constructed. Total airport capacity has been significantly affected as a result.

The current works will replace the base layer of a 579 meter section of runway 28L as well as a 183 meter overlay section of Runway 1L. The project, costing $17.2 million in total, is being funded by the federal government.
