The Campbell River Airport is working on improving accessibility for passengers.

The Airport has applied for a grant through the BC Air Access Program. If approved the funds would be used to improve accessibility at the airport by purchasing an accessibility ramp to provide safe boarding and deplaning for passengers who have mobility challenges.

The total estimated project cost is $87,000.

The City is requesting $60,900 from the Air Access Program. If the grant request is successful, the City has committed to contributing $26,100 from the Airport Reserve.
