A spokesman for the Civil Aviation Department said that the
Department fully concurred with the decision to groove and was pleased
that the technical questions had been solved. We have informed the
airlines and the pilots' association of the decision, and naturally they
are pleased about it."
The spokesman comented: "It is impossible to make a runway
too safe. Which is why we welcome the decision to start grooving as
soon as possible.
He concluded: "These works, combined with the fact that the
new overlay is daily becoming harder and rougher with use, are going
to give us a very fine surface by any standards."
