$4.9 million project: Airport hangars cleared to make way for street relocation

The Manassas Regional Airport is tearing down old airport hangars to make way for a $5 million street relocation project.

The hangars were occupied by Dulles Aviation, a flight school, for almost 40 years. Two large corporate hangars on the northwest side have been demolished for a road and drainage to be built. Before the Dulles Aviation FBO occupied these hangars, the Fairfax police helicopter division inhabited the main hangar for almost three years while their facility was being rebuilt, explained Jolene Berry, the airport’s assistant director.

The relocation project is funded using bi-partisan infrastructure law, or BIL funding. Berry explained that the airport plans to front the project cost and get reimbursed by the FAA over five years.
