Greater Rochester International Airport

AIRPORT INFORMATION

Greater Rochester International Airport (IATA: ROC, ICAO: KROC, FAA LID: ROC) is three miles (6 km) southwest of downtown Rochester, in Monroe County, New York. It is owned and operated by Monroe County. The largest airline that serves the airport is Delta Air Lines with 30% of passengers flying on Delta. The airport is home to the 642nd Aviation Support Battalion, part of the 42nd Infantry Division. It is the fourth-busiest airport in the state of New York and the second-busiest outside of the New York City metropolitan area.

The airport covers 1,136 acres (460 ha) at an elevation of 559 feet (170 m). It has three runways:

  • 4/22: 8,001 x 140 ft. (2,439 x 43 m) Concrete
  • 7/25: 4,000 x 100 ft. (1,219 x 30 m) Asphalt
  • 10/28: 6,401 x 150 ft. (1,951 x 46 m) Asphalt

Runways 4, 22 and 28 have Instrument Landing System (ILS); runway 4 has a Category II Instrument Landing System (ILS)

In 2008 the airport completed two service roads around the end of Runway 28, near Interstate 390, in tunnels. The ground was graded upwards beyond the end of the runway to cover the tunnels. Earlier in the decade, a 500-foot (150 m) overrun area was added to the east (10) end of this runway. An Engineered materials arrestor system (EMAS) of about 200 feet (61 m) was added to this extension. The EMAS consists of soft rubberized concrete into which an overrunning aircraft’s wheels can sink, and the aircraft ostensibly be stopped safely before it veers onto the grass.

In 2011 runway 10/28 was expanded to handle the airport’s Boeing 717, Boeing 737-300, Boeing 737-700, McDonnell Douglas MD-88, and McDonnell Douglas MD-90 traffic. Runway 4/22 is in debate of an expansion to 9,500 feet (2,900 m).
