North Runway Extension

McKinney National Airport (TKI) is currently extending Runway 18/36 by 500 feet at the north end. Earthwork is underway to build up the grade, and wick drains are being installed to accelerate soil settlement. We anticipate a settlement period of approximately nine months before pavement construction can begin for the runway extension.

From February 2025 through August 2026, several operational changes will affect airport operations:

  • The threshold for Runway 18 has been relocated 1,040 feet south, resulting in updated declared distances (details below).
  • The ILS glide slope, MALSR approach lighting system, and PAPI for Runway 18 have been removed, downgrading the Runway 18 precision approach to a non-precision LNAV approach.
  • Taxiway A1 and Taxiway B (between A1 and B1) are closed.
  • Pilots should plan to enter Runway 18 via Taxiway B2 for intersection departures.
  • The 1,000-foot section north of the relocated threshold may be available upon request with a 2-hour Prior Permission Required (PPR). Instructions for requesting PPR are provided below.
