U.S. Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley, along with U.S. Representatives Val Hoyle and Janelle Bynum, announced on Monday a combined $9.7 million in federal grants for infrastructure improvements to taxiways, fencing, aircraft storage, and other projects at airports throughout Oregon, including $448,000 for Creswell Hobby Field Airport.
“I’m glad to see this critical funding coming to our rural airports in Roseburg and Creswell,” said Rep. Hoyle. “These investments are about more than just runways—they’re about jobs, emergency response, small business growth, and making sure rural Oregon stays connected. I’ll keep fighting to make sure communities like ours aren’t left behind.”
