Cambridge Bay Airport (IATA: YCB, ICAO: CYCB) is located at Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, Canada, and is operated by the government of Nunavut. Its runways are marked with true headings because its location near the North Magnetic Pole makes airplanes' compasses useless.
In December 2005 the Government of Nunavut announced that they would spend $18 million to pave the runway.[3]
On 14 May 2008 a press release from the Premier of Nunavut, Paul Okalik, and Member of the Legislative Assembly, Keith Peterson, indicated that over the next three years the runway would be widened and lengthened.[4]
