VINTON COUNTY, Ohio (WSAZ) -- The Vinton County Airport will soon receive a facelift.
U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown announced Monday that the airport has been awarded funding through the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration to rehabilitate the apron pavement.
The apron is the part of the airport where planes are parked, boarded and refueled.
"Vinton County Airport provides important travel services to McArthur-area small businesses, recreational pilots, flight students, and visitors," Brown said. "This funding will improve the safety and efficiency of the airport so it can remain a reliable option for the region."
The airport will receive a $241,200 grant to be used for the rehabilitation of the airport's runway and apron.
