Concrete Paving Forms for JFK Airport

Runway 13-31, also known as the Bay Runway, was widened from 150 feet to 200 feet as part of the JFK Delay Reduction Program. The Project included milling six inches of existing runway asphalt and overlaying with 18 inches of concrete (with our Meta Pave Forms). The runway is being paved with concrete instead of less-durable asphalt and widened to accommodate today's bigger planes. At 14,572 feet, this one of the longest runways in the world and the most used runway at JFK.  Reconstruction of the runway was completed on 6/29/10 within budget and ahead of schedule.
