Parkhill worked with the Texas Department of Transportation Aviation Division and the City of Cameron to design improvements to Cameron Municipal Airpark in Cameron, Texas. The airfield improvements included replacement of the existing Medium Intensity Runway Lights (MIRLs) with new LED MIRLs, installation of Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI-2) on Runway 16-34 ends, rehabilitation and marking of the apron, pavement repair, hot mix asphalt overlay, and marking of turnarounds and cross taxiways, and runway repair, hot mix asphalt overlay, and marking of Runway 16-34. The project was completed under the construction budget.
This project provides the airport with much-needed repairs and improvements to runway surfaces that will have a long-lasting impact on the airport. The new LED MIRLs will provide the city with electricity cost savings and a low-maintenance system. The PAPIs will enhance visual guidance during landing. These improvements significantly increase airfield operations and safety. Overall, this was a significantly sized project notable for the community of Cameron.
