Federal Airport Authority Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, on Friday, reopened the domestic runway (18L/36R) of Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos State for flight operations.
It had earlier reported that the runway was closed to enable the installation of navigational facilities.
Prior to its shutdown, the runway could only perform sunrise services, but FAAN had planned to install approach lights, runway lights (threshold and centre, edge light), and other equipment there.
According to FAAN, the runway will operate both sunrise and sunset flights following the installation of the additional aids, substantially reducing the workload for operators.
