Airfield Pavement Rehabilitation - Golden Municipal Airport
On behalf of the Town of Golden, HM Aero prepared a Regional Air Transportation Initiative grant funding application for the detailed engineering design of the pavement rehabilitation of Runway 14-32, Taxiways A and B, and Aprons I and II. $120,000 was awarded in 2021.
HM Aero led all aspects of the civil engineering design process. The pavement rehabilitation design for the runway, taxiway and apron surfaces was prepared in accordance with Transport Canada’s Aerodrome Standards and Recommended Practices – TP312 5th Edition. A construction staging plan and Plan of Construction Operations were developed to ensure the operational integrity of the airport.
Following the advancement of the project to tender-ready status, HM Aero prepared a successful grant funding application through the British Columbia Air Access Program. $2,000,000 was awarded by the Province of British Columbia in 2023, representing the maximum funding that can be provided per eligible airport. HM Aero subsequently led the tendering process on behalf of the Town and was responsible for the recommendation of contract award for the rehabilitation of Runway 14-32 through a surface overlay, localized full depth crack repairs, and shoulder regrading.
Construction was completed over a four-week period. During this time, duties performed by HM Aero included:
Owner’s representation;
Stakeholder, aircraft operator, and NAV CANADA coordination;
Contract administration;
Resident inspection; and
Quality assurance and material testing coordination.
Construction was successfully completed in October 2023, with the runway subsequently returned to service.
