Syracuse Hancock International Airport and Greater Binghamton/Edwin A Link Field will use federal-funding awards for projects at the respective facilities.
The Syracuse airport will utilize nearly $9.3 million to fix taxiway lighting, while the Binghamton airport will use more than $6.4 million for projects focusing on its safety area.
Those funding awards are among more than $23.4 million for 13 New York airports announced Friday.
Besides the airports serving Syracuse and the Binghamton area, Massena International-Richards Field will use more than $966,000 to reconstruct taxiway lighting, install runway vertical/visual guidance system, and reconstruct airfield guidance signs.
The money was allocated through the FAA’s Airport Improvement Program (AIP), U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D–N.Y.) and U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D–N.Y.) said in a news release.
