The Port of Oakland is responsible for maintenance of all pavement at OAK, including airfield pavement for taxiways, runways, aprons, and vehicle service roads. Inspections performed as a part of the ongoing maintenance and monitoring of critical Port infrastructure revealed that preventative maintenance was necessary for the primary air carrier runway, Runway 12/30, at OAK.
The specific area to be repaired entails two patches, approximately 28 feet wide and 1,100 feet long on either side of the runway centerline. In addition, pavement cracks suitable for conventional crack sealing will also be addressed at this time.
The Runway 12/30 pavement repair work will take place on extended Monday morning closures Sunday, May 5, through Monday, May 6, from 11 p.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday, May 12, through Monday, May 13, from 11 p.m. to 4 p.m. The main runway will not be accessible for jet aircraft landings and departures. Please expect jet departures and arrivals on North Field. Aircraft may overfly residential areas and residents may experience unusual aircraft noise. Dates are subject to change.
