Army Corps Completes JBLM Airfield Runway Repairs Ahead of Schedule
Construction on the single-span concrete arch, that replaced the two steel pipe culverts, continues as a U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster 3 flies over, as it departs Joint Base Lewis-McChord Airfield, Tacoma, Washington, around March 1, 2021. The original culverts, built in the 1950s, began eroding and thinning out, causing major structural issues and debris blockages to the runway and the Clover Creek stream that ran beneath it.
