The closure will allow for the immediate repair of sections of the runway by the Ministry of Works and Urban Development.  The Ministry of Works & Urban Development has undertaken to complete the requisite work within the shortest possible time.

The Civil Aviation Department has issued a NOTAM and has further advised the local Administrator so as to assure all stakeholders are informed as to the temporary closure.
