Hearings Scheduled For Cape Cod Airport Expansion

A pair of public meetings are being held on Wednesday to update residents on the proposed runway extension at Cape Cod Gateway Airport.

The first one is a virtual meeting and 2 p.m. and the other is being held in person at Barnstable Town Hall at 6:00.

Plans are on the table that would extend one of the airport's runways by about a quarter mile, something that drew a lot of concerns during a public comment period in January.

Airport officials say they plan to address those concerns during Wednesday's meetings.

The new extension and some facility improvements will cost about 20-million-bucks to complete.
