Expansion plans

An intermunicipal industrial area is planned at the airfield, which is to have a runway extended to 1,800 meters in the medium term. However, the expansion is controversial in politics and the public. Therefore, the realization takes place in several phases: In September 2009 the runway was initially extended to a length of 1200 meters (previously: 980 meters) and a width of 30 meters (previously: 20 meters). It is not yet clear whether and when the extension of the remaining 600 meters can begin. In October 2010, four of the five existing taxiways were widened from 7.50 m to 10.50 m. In addition, the airfield received a sixth taxiway.
