The Port of Portland and the Vancouver-based Nutter Corporation have finished the second phase of a three-phase, three-year runway improvements project at Portland International Airport.

After rehabilitating the north runway in the summer of 2009, the port had Nutter Corporation extend it from 8,000 feet to 9,825 feet over the past five months. Port officials are now in the process of laying out all the improvements that will be done to the 11,000-foot south runway next summer.

Even though the project was slow to get off the ground due to an unusually wet spring, port spokesman Steve Johnson said it was finished on time and slightly under budget. To date, the port has spent $68 million to improve and extend the north runway.

“We’ve been playing catch up all summer,” Johnson said. “But the team did a great job and we completed the project right when we originally thought we would.”

The port set the project up so that the bigger planes – cargo planes and passenger planes used for international flights – could still use the long runway while the other was extended. Now that the north runway has been completed, those planes can use it while the south runway is being rehabilitated.

The north runway officially opens this evening at which time all planes will return to their regular routes.

The Port of Portland is starting work on the second phase of its north runway expansion project Monday. The phase will extend the runway to 9,825 feet from the current 8,000 feet.

The expansion will provide extra room for larger planes, which will use the north runway when the south runway closes for repairs next year.

Nutter Corporation is the contractor on the project. Work will run through October.

The second phase of the project will cost roughly $15 million, said Ed Hagedorn, project manager for Nutter.
