Virginia U-S Senators Mark Warner and Tim Kaine announced today that over a million and a half dollars in federal funding will go towards improving several airports across Virginia.

The biggest portion of that, including over 1.1 million, is headed to the Shenandoah Valley Regional Airport in Weyers Cave.

Airport Director of Marketing and Communications Heather Ream says the funding will be used to acquire land along Airport Road.

Ream added that some of the funding will also be used for an environmental assessment.

The funding was made possible by the Infrastructure Law that was passed several years ago.
