From Monday 31 October to Friday 4 November, and on Monday 7 November and Tuesday 8 November, maintenance works are being carried out on the Kaagbaan Runway (06-24). During this period of maintenance, the runway is not available for air traffic. Landing flights are expected to make more frequent use of the Aalsmeerbaan (18L-36R) and Zwanenburgbaan (18C-36C) runways. Departing flights will be using the Aalsmeerbaan, Buitenveldertbaan (09-27) and Zwanenburgbaan runways more often.
Annual maintenance is carried out on all the runways so that they remain in good condition. The Kaagbaan Runway will be undergoing restorative works on the asphalt and markings. In addition, the cabling and electrics will be checked, lights cleaned or repaired, and the grass around the runway cut. The rainwater drainage system will also be inspected, flushed out and repaired where necessary. These works are being carried out in collaboration with construction company Heijmans.
