What is happening?

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Each year maintenance works are required to maintain Runway 1, the most used runway, and its’ adjoining taxiways. We have devised a programme of works and identified closure nights through the year; listed below. We have planned work in a similar way for the last few years and community feedback has been positive to such advance warning.

For more information about such works please see: www.manchesterairport.co.uk/runwayclosures

*5-night closure

The dates include 'weather contingency' and some redundancy; it is unlikely that all the nights will be required. In the event of bad weather/low visibility or that no works are required, the works may be deferred or cancelled and Runway 1 reinstated.

Normal operations will resume at all other times. These changes are permitted within the terms of the Runway 2 Planning Permission.
