The taxiways and runways at Vinh Airport have degraded with cracks and damages seen on the surfaces.
The upgrade work, which would cost an estimated VND745 billion (USD29.33 million), is scheduled to be carried out after the 2025 Tet Lunar New Year Holiday.
According to ACV, Vinh Airport has reported growth in passenger numbers over recent years. The airport saw passenger number growth of 15 percent during 2015-2019 and served 2.6 million passengers in 2022.
However, the taxiways and runways at Vinh Airport have degraded with cracks and damages seen on the surfaces, ACV said, adding that repairs need to be carried out soon to ensure safety.
ACV proposed to close the airport for four months, starting after the 2025 Tet Lunar New Year Holiday and completing before the summer holiday next year.
