The project includes the construction of a runway 3200 m long and 45 m wide, the reconstruction of an apron for 8 aircraft, and the installation of modern equipment.

According to the press service, the seismic activity at the construction site is very high and amounts to just over 8 points.

The reconstruction of the airport will not only increase the number of flights and passenger traffic, but also expand the route network, which will positively affect the development of the region's tourism industry. It is important to note that the existing runway continues to operate without restrictions during the reconstruction.

The works are carried out within the framework of the national project «Effective transport system».
