The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has put in effect closure of Runway 18R/36L at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja for rehabilitation on Monday as disclosed in a statement signed by its Director, Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Obiageli Orah.
According to her, the closure is due to ongoing rehabilitation work (asphalt phase) at the A2 Taxiway link of the runway.
She said this is part of ongoing efforts to ensure that the runway would remain in optimal condition.
“There will be no disruption to flight operations during this period as all flights would be redirected to the alternative runway, 18L/36R,” she said.
She emphasized FAAN’s commitment to the safety, security and comfort of airport users.
