IAD RWY 19C/1C

(1/2) > >>

dljone3:
Yesterday, I heard an IAD controller mention this runway is closed until November. Surprising, since it just opened recently. Anyone know why?

dljone3:
CORRECTION - 19R/1R just opened recently.

captray:
Your point being.......

dljone3:
The point is 19R/1R is the runway that opened recently (last year actually) and not 19C/1C. However, the same question applies.

w0x0f:
Just a guess, but maybe they are making some taxiways to get to and from 19R/1L.

It does not look like anyone was thinking about how to use this runway before they opened it.
