Davenport Municipal Airport is classified as a
reliever airport for the Quad City metropolitan area. The airport has two
runways with Runway 15-33 the longest at 5,501 feet. Several businesses and
the Iowa Air National Guard are located on the airport. The Airport Master
Plan identified the need to extend Runway 15-33 to 6,266 feet to better
serve the growing corporate aircraft fleet and potential cargo operators.
In order to extend the runway two local roads have been planned to be
re-routed. The plan required close coordination with the City of Davenport,
City of Eldridge, and Scott County.
