FRYEBURG — Construction crews on Monday broke ground on a new taxiway at Eastern Slopes Regional Airport, and several other airport projects are on the horizon.
The new taxiway will improve access to the airport's existing hangars as well as additional hangars that may be built in the future. A.J. Coleman's was the low bidder for the job. The project will be done within 20 days. David Cullinan, the airport's manager, said Coleman hopes to finish it in 12 to 15 days.
