TxDOT Aviation Division’s Statewide Impact

Wood County Airport Collins Field recently completed a runway lengthening and widening project using a state rider, extending runway 18-36 from 4,000 feet by 60 feet to 5,001 feet by 75 feet.

Pleasanton Municipal Airport has had several major developments this year.

With assistance from the TxDOT Aviation Division, two 12,000-gallon fuel tanks (Jet A and 100LL) and dispensing equipment were completed, along with a concrete driveway and unloading rack. These improvements support future airport expansion, with the city recently purchasing an additional 500 acres. Two 80-foot by 80-foot hangars with offices and Americans with Disabilities Act–compliant restrooms are under construction.
