August 19, 2024 Back to all news

Dublin Airport’s South Runway (10R/28L) is being temporarily withdrawn from service for four nights from Monday, August 26 to Thursday, August 29, 2024 inclusive from 11.00pm to 5.00am to facilitate essential maintenance works. 

During the period the South Runway (10R/28L) is closed, the North Runway (10L/28R) will be used for operations. 

Regular essential maintenance activities will be completed over the course of the closure, including runway surface maintenance, grassland management and painting of critical safety markings.

daa is conscious that runway operations during this essential maintenance period will result in an increase in noise levels for some local residents, and we will endeavour to complete the works safely as quickly as possible in order to minimise impact.

Essential maintenance works and runway operations are subject to weather, and if conditions are not suitable, the works will be rescheduled to take place as soon as possible thereafter. 

It is currently anticipated that the next round of essential maintenance works will take place in October 2024.
