Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport is expected to begin about $7 million in renovations to two of its terminals.
The planned construction comes more than two years after its board approved a $2 billion package to cover that project and others in an effort to improve air travel at one of the largest airports in the world. According to Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filings, renovations include ramp and concourse levels, a bag claim carousel, and modifications to ramp level spaces.
“The estimated $2 billion in projects are the latest example of the ongoing investment in both the Airport and the region, not only updating the nearly 50-year-old facility but also providing expanded gate capacity in both Terminal C and Terminal A to address future growth and continue a commitment to an evolving enhanced customer experience,” according to a news release.
DFW has been working on other infrastructure projects, including the Terminal D South gates expansion, the High C gates renovation, and the opening of its Integrated Operations Center, as well as upgrading runways and taxiways. The projects, spanning about 850,000 square feet of terminal space, will be completed in phases, with an anticipated delivery date of June 2026, according to the press release.
In March, the airport plans to replace 20 elevators it uses to move customers among its five terminals to improve its Skylink system, The Dallas Express reported in November.
Skylink, a free rail train, moves customers between Terminals A, B, C, D, and E every few minutes, 24 hours a day, at the airport. Each terminal has a Skylink station.
