The nine-month renovation of a World War II-era aircraft hangar at Nelson Airport is complete, bringing the heritage building back into commercial use.

Nelson Airport has created a “plane spotting” loop along the Airport Perimeter Walkway to give aviation and photography enthusiasts more opportunities to snap great images. 

Footpaths and pedestrian crossings will be improved and extra covered bike racks added as part of major upgrades at each end of the Nelson Airport terminal beginning this month.
