Sitting at an elevation of above sea level, Zaranj Airport has one gravel runway measuring around.
Plans to replace the airport emerged in 2011, with the new Nimruz Airport being located east of the city. Flight safety was one of the reasons cited that led to the construction of the new airport in view of the small runway and nearby residential houses. Construction began on 1 November 2011.
Two runway excursions in 1995 and 2008 resulted in damage to nearby houses.
