Faleolo International Airport has undergone significant improvements to infrastructure since its establishment in 1986. Some of the more recent improvements have included the upgrading of their lighting systems. 

GM Poles were engaged to design, fabricate, and install four 25m, and one 27m Hydraulic towers. Each pole is fitted with a crossarm to hold two lights and beacons, as well as a 2.0m spire. The poles and spire were wetspray painted in red and white bands.
