•Rehabilitation of the pavement on the north half of one of the long runway's two parallel taxiways and additional airfield lighting improvements
•Expansion of the Authority's administration building also will be moving toward a construction start in early 2012
Other changes to be made include: constructing new restrooms, developing a pre-security concessions area, reconfiguring the security screening checkpoint and constructing a meeter and greeter area.

Transforming the current N.C. State University chancellor’s residence into the Gregg Museum of Art and Design, this $ 7.5 million project will result in a freestanding, LEED Silver-certified facility that includes the renovated 7,000-square-foot chancellor’s house and a new 16,700-square-foot wing. The Gregg Museum project is part of a total of $500 million in building projects under construction or slated to begin in the next year at N.C. State. The project is being guided by The Freelon Group, which has designed numerous university buildings and museums around the country.
