Strasbourg-Entzheim airport will close for a month in the spring of 2023, from March 14 to April 14, we revealed our colleagues from France 3 Alsace this Tuesday, due to work on his track. Information confirmed to France Bleu Alsace by the chairman of the management board of Strasbourg-Entzheim airport Renaud Paubelle “these are works scheduled every 12-15 years. The last time was in 2000. The surface layer of the track is a bit damaged so we are going to redo it. We will take advantage of this work to install new LED beacon lights.”
Some flights diverted to Baden or Basel-Mulhouse
During this work, the airlines will have to adapt. The airport has no plans to divert flights to any particular airport. “Some have decided to reduce the airfoil, others will offer flights from Baden or Basel Mulhouse“, says Renaud Paubelle.
A reopening for the Easter holidays
For the airport, this closure represents a big shortfall continues Renaud Paubelle “in March we generally have a thousand flights, but this work is necessary in particular for safety reasons. We tried to find the best compromise, taking into account the weather, a closure between parliamentary sessions and before the Easter school holidays.“. The planes will be there for the first day of vacation departures on April 15, assures the management.
