The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has announced the temporary closure of Runway 18R/36L at Murtala Muhammed Airport (MMA), Lagos, for maintenance work.
According to a statement issued by FAAN’s Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mrs. Obiageli Orah, the closure will take effect from 3:00 AM on March 3, 2025, to 11:59 PM on March 4, 2025.
FAAN explained that the temporary shutdown is necessary to facilitate rehabilitation work on the asphalt phase of the A2 Taxiway-link.
The authority assured the public that the measure is part of ongoing efforts to maintain the runway in optimal condition for safe and efficient flight operations.
To minimize disruptions, FAAN has arranged for all flights to be redirected to the alternate runway, 18L/36R, ensuring that air travel remains unaffected.
