Sixteen airports across New York are sharing a $40 million federal grant aimed at improving infrastructure and safety at smaller to midsize air strips.
Cortland County’s Chase Field and Oswego County’s airport, where they’re in need of snow removal equipment, will get help. That’s part of $8 million going to six rural and mid-size airports in Central New York.
Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand serve on the Senate Appropriations Transportation Committee and negotiated for the funding under the Bipartisan Infrastructure & Jobs Law.
