John F. Kennedy International Airport’s multibillion-dollar redevelopment program is underway with the recent groundbreaking of the pared-down $1.5 billion Terminal 4 expansion and renovation project.

One year into phase 2 of its $4.1-billion, multifaceted makeover, Salt Lake City International Airport recently marked the topping out of Concourse A-East.

This $12.25-million passenger terminal replaces an antiquated 1948 structure. Completed in April 2021, the project required crews to work in an active airport, rerouting roads leading into the complex, relocating utilities and making other improvements.

An expansion of the Sky Train maintenance and storage facility at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix supports the new line that connects Terminal 3 to the Rental Car Center.

The $344-million, five-story connection between Terminals 1 and 2 provides nearly 240,000 sq ft for ticket counters, baggage carousels, a bus gate and an additional screening checkpoint as well as a vertical circulation core that will connect with LAX’s future automated people mover. 

Totaling only one-quarter mile in length, the $172-million AirTrain extension significantly enhanced connectivity at San Francisco International Airport.

Preparatory work is underway for a summer installation of a new concourse at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport using prefabrication and modular methods—a first for U.S. airports, say officials.
