(AP) -- U.S. Rep John Dingell says the Federal Aviation Administration is allocating $1.8 million for improvements to a runway at Detroit Metropolitan Airport.
Dingell's office issued a news release Tuesday saying the money will go toward major work on 550 feet of runway 9L/27R.
The Dearborn Democrat says the move is important because it increases safety at the Romulus airport.
