Assiniboia Municipal Airport Authority

 

The Assiniboia Municipal Airport Authority is pleased to announce that we were successful in being awarded Funding for improvements to the Local Airport.  Thanks to the generous contribution from the Local Authority and the Community Airport Partnership Program we are able to do some improvements to our Airport.  The amount is $90,865 which is shared by the Local Authority and the Ministry of Highways.  This will go a long way in improving the Airport.  The money will be used to resurface the Taxiway and expand the Transfer Area for Medivac Transfers of patients requiring Emergent Care. Going forward, we hope to one day have a modern and well serviced Airport to better serve our Community and surrounding Areas. 


Thank you

This Authority is a collaboration of the Town of Assiniboia, Rural Municipality Lake of the Rivers no. 72 & Rural Municipality of Stonehenge no. 73. We are working together to improve the airport to better serve Assiniboia and the surrounding area. Our current focus is the resurfacing of the taxiway form the runway to the gate, including a loading area for medivac patients. Our goal  is to have full working lights, runway & taxiway for the Saskchewan Air Ambulance. The Air Ambulance provides 24 hr critical care air transport for our rural communities. Able to travel further & faster, primary service for stroke patients, pediatric & neonatal transport teams. Sometimes the only way for these specialized teams to reach their patients.
