Finally! JFK airport can start using 13R/31L and 13L/31R again!
JFK’s oldest runway 13L/31R has been under construction for the past 7 months and just yesterday has reopened! They for a while have been only using 4L/22R and 4R/22L operations.
Now they have reopened their vital runway and can continue using 31R/31L and 13R/13L operations!
Runway 13L/31R now has updated runway lighting system (used to be the antiquated original system), they have resurfaced it for a big increase in effective life, and have widened it to 200ft, like all the other runways at JFK.
Runway 13L/31R now finally achieves appropriate FAA safety regulations!
Hooray!
