Cork Airport temporarily closed in mid September to allow for the 10 week runway works as part of a €40 million investment to upgrade and enhance critical infrastructure at the airport up to 2022 .
In a video posted on social media by Cork Airport Brian Culloty, head of airside infrastructure and resident engineer, said that 95% of the new ducting and manhole systems to be installed adjacent to runway 16/34 to facilitate the new airfield ground lighting circuits have been installed.
