Dalton Airport Breaks Ground Today

DALTON, GA. (WDEF) – This afternoon, city and state leaders gathered for a groundbreaking ceremony at the Dalton Municipal Airport. 

The event marked the start of construction on three new airplane hangars, funded by a Georgia Department of Transportation grant and local matching funds.

Plans include a ten-bay hangar, a sixty-by-sixty-foot hangar, and a larger one hundred and twenty-by-eighty-foot hangar, each to be built at separate spots on the airport campus. 

The airport says the project should be complete by the end of the year.
