In late 2016, the Town of Superior was awarded a grant from the Arizona Department of Transportation Aeronautics division to conduct a master plan for the Superior Municipal Airport.  The Airport is located west of Superior off of US 60 and is home to a dirt airstrip.

When the US 60 four-lane expansion construction was started, the Town used their funds from the sale of the airport easement to fund the match for the grant.  Coffman and Associates were awarded the contract to complete the study.  Last week Coffman and Associates hosted an open house to share their current findings on the plan.  The master plan is about half way completed; the Airport Technical Advisory Committee will meet again in early 2018 and will host another public meeting for input following that meeting.
