DALLAS (WBAP/KLIF) – Dallas Love Field Airport will receive more than $15.5M in Coronavirus Relief Funds.
The Dallas airfield was awarded two federal grants totaling $15,586,214 in relief funds following the economic distress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Funding, which was appropriated by Congress in December as part of the Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations (CRRSA) Act, comes through the U.S. Department of Transportation.
“As we look to turn the corner on this deadly pandemic, it’s critical that Texas airports are given every resource they need to handle the coming increase in travel,” Texas Senator John Cornyn said. “I applaud this announcement that will benefit the health and well-being of travelers in the Dallas-Fort Worth region.”
