West Liberty Airport Slope Stabilization & Drainage Enhancement

Project Overview

Our team tackled challenging terrain at West Liberty Airport with a comprehensive slope stabilization and drainage improvement project along the runway perimeter. The scope involved extensive earthwork and precision grading to establish proper drainage patterns, followed by strategic riprap placement to create robust erosion protection on critical slopes.

Technical Implementation

Heavy equipment operation in the tight airport environment showcased our expertise in maintaining operational safety while executing complex grade transitions. Installing specialized drainage infrastructure required meticulous attention to FAA specifications, ensuring proper water management without compromising airport operations.

Project Results

The project incorporated geotextile underlayment and engineered rock placement to create a durable solution for long-term slope stability. Upon completion, the enhanced drainage system provides essential infrastructure protection while maintaining the integrity of the airport's operational surfaces.
