The airport is classified as an airport of entry by Nav Canada and is staffed by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). CBSA officers at this airport can handle general aviation aircraft only, with no more than 15 passengers.[1]
In the spring of 2009, work began to extend the runway to 9,006 ft (2,745 m), in order to accommodate Boeing 767 aircraft.[4] The threshold of runway 05 was extended towards the south of the airport.
A new terminal building is being constructed adjacent to the existing terminal to add terminal space and airside waiting area to attract airlines to start service to the area. The estimated cost is $20 million, with the federal government and city of Trois-Rivières each responsible for 35% of the cost and Quebec province paying for 30%.[5]
