It is understood that the total investment of the reconstruction and expansion project of Mohe Gulian Airport is 805 million yuan. After the reconstruction and expansion, the runway will be extended to 2,800 meters, and the terminal building, air traffic management building and boarding bridge will be newly built, and water supply, power supply, heating and fire protection will be built. Rescue and other auxiliary production and living facilities can take off and land Airbus A321, Boeing B737-800 and below.
At present, Mohe Gulian Airport has opened two routes from Harbin to Mohe, and from Harbin to Mohe via Jiagedaqi.
