More than 250 airfield lighting fittings are being removed at Waterford Airport as construction works continue.

Waterford Aviation says the project has now moved into its next phase, with the existing lighting infrastructure across the airfield being taken out.

The company described the work as a major operation and another milestone in preparing the airfield for the next stage of construction.

Images shared from the airport show crews removing lighting equipment from across the site, as work on the wider redevelopment continues.

The latest works come as part of ongoing construction at Waterford Airport, with significant changes being made to the airfield infrastructure.

Waterford Aviation says the removal of more than 250 fittings is required before construction can progress to its next stage.
