When you drive on county roads, fly from a neighborhood airport, or pull over for that snowplow on your way to Julian, you have interacted with our department. Your safety and convenience matter to us, and we make sure nearly 2,000 miles of roadways, bridges and guardrails, signs, traffic signals and crosswalks are ready for you, as well as the eight County airports we operate including McClellan-Palomar, Gillespie Field and Ramona.
McClellan-Palomar Airport in Carlsbad is a gateway to and from San Diego’s North County. It serves the general aviation community, corporate aircraft and commercial services.
The airport is an important part of the community with its $461 million in industry activity, and generates $72 million in federal, state, and local taxes annually.
