Runway 17/35 Permanently Closed? edit

From what I have been seeing for a few years on Google Maps satellite view, runway 17/35 is closed. I know that it was built as a temporary runway to use while 16/34 was being rebuilt (which the article mentions), but if it is closed indefinitely or permanently, shouldn't the article reflect this? I cannot make such a change as I have no source other than what Google Maps shows.
