Findorff Construction has clarified the runway for an airport upgrade in Wisconsin.
The general contractor based in Madison, Wisconsin, recently has the foundation for the 95 million US dollar Concourse Redevelopment Project At Milwaukee Mitchell's international airport. According to a press release on September 16, the project has been one of the largest investments in the airport for decades.
The project will replace the existing international arrival connection, which is not connected to the main terminal, with a new system that increases capacity for both international and domestic air travel. After completing the new hall near MKE, two jet bridges with up to 400 international passengers will be processed per hour, which, according to the publication, almost triples the current capacity.
“The new Halle E will improve the efficiency for international operations, as the airlines are dealing with international and domestic arrivals and deviations from the same goal instead of deducting aircraft from the international arrival terminal to the main terminal,” said Brian Dranzik, the director of Milwaukee County Airport. “The new hall will also be environmentally friendly, have a modern US customs facility and bring MKES passenger experience to an even higher level.”
Officials continued to emphasize the economic and community advantages of an introduction event this month. For example, the income, the binding of the airport and the support of 13.5 million US dollars will completely finance the renovation. Local basic taxes are not used for the project.
“This project will create the prerequisites for expanded international connections and economic opportunities for our region,” said David Crowley, Executive by Milwaukee County. “The best thing is that this project will not use a single property tax dollar.”
Console E Consolidation was first opened in 1969, but since 2017 when the airline's consolidation left two active hooks at the airport. Findorff began demolishing the existing structure this month and, according to the press release, expects construction to be built at the end of 2027.
