Consolidated Rent-A-Car (CONRAC) Garage
This project provides for the construction of a customer service building, a ready-return parking garage, new utility building and associated service areas for the rental car companies to maintain their vehicles. The facility will also include concessions and will be connected to the Terminal via covered walkways.
 
 
 

Exterior Terminal Improvements: Phase 2
This project provides for the modernization of the exterior features of the Terminal building. On the upper level, the curtain wall façade will be replaced with windows and new entrances. Expansion joints along the Terminal façade will be replaced. The inner and outer roadway curbs will be expanded by 3 ft on both levels and roadway lane widths will be narrowed accordingly. This project was bid with the Interior Terminal Improvements Phase 3 project and has been coordinated to mitigate passenger and tenant impacts.

Interior Terminal Improvements Phase 1 (Restrooms)
This project provides for the complete rehabilitation of 12 restrooms along with minor renovations to an additional 9 restrooms throughout the terminal and all concourses. Work has been phased with other planned/ current interior construction work in the Terminal to minimize impacts to passengers. (This project was originally bid in 2009 but was rebid in 2010).
 
 
 
 
 

Interior Terminal Improvements: Phase 3 (Terminal and Baggage Claim) This project provides for the modernization of the interior of the Main Terminal building. On Level 2, the offices on the roadway side of the main corridor will be demolished up to the curtain wall and will be reconfigured into a circulation area with new Terrazzo flooring. The ticket counters will be refurbished and relocated to allow for the placement of EDS machines behind them. Level 1 modernization efforts consist of upgrades to the flooring and baggage claim finishes. This project was bid with the Exterior Terminal Improvements Phase 2 project and has been coordinated to mitigate passenger and tenant impacts.
New Airfield Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) Facility This project provides a modern ARFF Station just to the west of the existing facility which is both antiquated and located on a constrained site that doesn’t allow for expansion. The project also included the demolition of the DHL hangar and apron.
