Business Aviation Group was awarded a project to develop nine general and business aviation hangars at Yampa Valley Regional Airport (KHDN) in northwest Colorado. The new hangars will be constructed on the airport’s east side, near the Atlantic Aviation FBO.
Groundbreaking on the development is expected to begin in November, with completion set for fourth-quarter 2023. Specifically, the project calls for the construction of two 120-foot-by-120-foot large hangars; three 80-foot-by-60-foot medium hangars; and four 60-foot-by-60-foot small hangars. The medium and large hangars will accommodate midsize, super-midsize, and large jets, and feature office space and restrooms, as well as LED lighting, energy-efficient insulation, and solar power.
“This project will address the current lack of hangar space,” said KHDN airport director Kevin Booth. “We can’t meet the demand for hangar space right now, and that demand is expected to increase in the coming years.” Booth added that the new hangars also will serve as a means to attract aviation-related businesses to the airport, which serves the communities of Craig, Hayden, and Steamboat Springs.
Tally Ho Construction, Interport Capital, and Hauser Architects are partners on the BA Group-led project.
