Manassas Regional Airport
Manassas Regional Airport is highlighting new and upgraded snow removal equipment as the region prepares for winter weather. Airport officials say the fleet includes a new front-end loader for clearing ramps and loading snow, along with snow brooms, blowers, and a recently acquired Oshkosh plow truck to keep runways and taxiways clear during snow and ice.
The airport says its large snow blower can move tons of snow per hour during heavy snowfall, helping maintain operations during winter storms. Most of the equipment was obtained through auctions or donations from larger airports, with officials noting that future eligibility for state and federal grants could allow new purchases once the airport becomes a commercial service facility. This update comes as a winter storm is expected to affect the region.

Manassas Regional Airport has launched a redesigned website as part of its ongoing efforts to modernize and prepare for commercial airline service. Operated by the City of Manassas, the airport is Virginia’s busiest general aviation hub, with over 100,000 flights annually and more than 400 aircraft based on site.
The new website, developed by Trivera Interactive and accessible at flyhef.com, features improved mobile responsiveness, easier navigation, and quick access to flight operations data, tenant information, and visitor tools. Airport Director Juan Rivera said the redesign enhances accessibility and aligns with the airport’s broader vision to expand aviation services.
MANASSAS, Va. — The Manassas City Council voted on July 28 to allocate $985,456 from the airport fund to continue the design of a new air traffic control tower at Manassas Regional Airport, bringing the city one step closer to preparing the facility for future commercial service.
According to Airport Director Juan Rivera, the funding will bring the current 45% design plan to full completion.
