In the early morning of June 5, the new second runway of the third phase of Taiyuan Airport was successfully lit up. The completion of this key node marks an important step towards the official launch of this newly built runway.
As a key project of the Civil Aviation Administration's "14th Five-Year Plan", Taiyuan Wusu International Airport has built a new runway of runwayTotal length 3600 meters,45 meters wide, with a distance of 490 meters from the current runway, and a flight area level of 4E. The project will simultaneously plan and build taxiways, south aprons and supporting housing. The main and descending ends are equipped with Class III precision approach systems, and the secondary descending ends are equipped with Class I precision approach systems. After they are put into operation, the airport's operation support capabilities will be greatly improved.
The navigation-assisted lighting system, known as the "third eye" of a pilot, is the core facility to ensure flight safety at night and under low visibility conditions. The new second runway navigation assist lighting project with lights started on April 1, 2024. After 14 months of intense construction, the construction of precision approach lights, runway lights, taxiway lights and other systems and two lighting stations have been fully completed.
