Airport Projects
San Gabriel Valley Airport
The San Gabriel Valley Airport Runway and Taxiway Rehabilitation Project includes approximately 14 acres of pavement reconstruction for Runway 1-19, parallel Taxiway A, and associated taxiway connectors. The project also includes the reconfiguration of Taxiway D to meet current Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) design standards, installation of new runway and taxiway lighting and signage, and the application of pavement markings to support safe aircraft movement.
In addition, the project will rehabilitate approximately 16 acres of apron and tiedown areas through crack sealing, patching, slurry sealing, and new striping to preserve, enhance, and extend pavement life.
A series of public meetings will be held in 2025–26 to provide airport tenants project updates, including design milestones, construction phasing, and operational impacts.

Public Works engaged a consulting firm in November 2012 for the design phase of the rehabilitation of the south, midfield and north ramp/apron areas on the airport -- a total paved area of approximately 2,098,800 square feet. Work will be consistent with Public Work's formal Airport Pavement Maintenance Program (PMP) for the County-owned airports which will include priority ratings for repair or replacement of various airport pavements depending on Pavement Condition Index (PCI). Construction is anticipated to include in-place pulverization of asphalt concrete, soil stabilization, grading and drainage, compaction, asphalt overlay, tie down areas, and striping of the entire paved apron areas. Construction is anticipated to begin between September to December 2015. Public Works may be soliciting Requests for Proposals for the construction phase 1 (midfield Apron Area) of the project in Summer 2015.

An approved Airport Layout Plan (ALP) with narrative is required for all public airports that receive state or federal funding. Compton/Woodley Airport ALP is outdated and does not meet current standards. The County received a planning grant for additional projects that were not listed on prior ALP's. This will include, but not limited to: major pavement repairs to the runways, taxiways, ramp/apron areas, and other future capital improvement projects. The project narrative will update the airport inventory and forecast. Public Works Aviation Division as-needed airport planning consulting firm is currently working on the ALP update and it is anticipated to be completed by September 2015.
