We are upgrading the Yarrawonga Aerodrome lighting to comply with current AS/NZS 3000:2007 Wiring Rules and current Civil Aviation Safety Authority requirements as stated in the Manual of Standards – Aerodromes Part 139 for non-precision approach operations.

Expected benefits include an improved runway lighting system that is compliant for a classified instrument non-precision runway thereby improving air safety for pilots.

It will also result in operational power savings of up to 50-75% as an LED lighting system uses only 10% of power consumption of the existing incandescent lighting system.

This project is jointly funded by Council and the Australian Government's Regional Airports Program - Round 1.
