Transport Minister on New Standards for Airport Runway Closures
Posted on 2024-03-20 16:49:13
Transport Minister Wang Guo-tsai says special procedures will be in place for future airport runway closures.
The minister says the Taoyuan International Airport Corporation will be required to submit a plan for runway closures that last more than 12 hours.
And the corporation must work with airlines to ensure flights are adjusted accordingly.
His comment comes after the corporation released a report today on the closure of the airport's south runway in early March for maintenance, which caused widespread flight delays and cancellations.
The report included a list of disciplinary actions against employees who were resonsible, as well as steps to improve its planning and coordination procedures in the future.
