Governor Bredesen Announces Grant for Outlaw Field in Montgomery County Grant awarded through TDOT’s Aeronautics Division

NASHVILLE – Governor Phil Bredesen announced today that an aeronautics grant totaling $350,000 has been approved for Outlaw Field in Clarksville.

“Our local airports are vital to the economy and travel system of Tennessee,” said Bredesen. “Investing in our airports helps keep them competitive and efficient at meeting the needs of businesses and travelers. I’m pleased to support continued improvement at Outlaw Field.”

District 22 Senator Tim Barnes had this to say after hearing news of the grant:

First-rate transportation is important as we attract employers like Hemlock Semiconductor to Montgomery County. Plus, the executive business travelers who use this new airport will spend money in our local economy.
