The funding will upgrade baggage systems, runways, and more across 32 states.
The Federal Aviation Administration announced over $332 million for the modernization of American airports, distributing 171 grants to facilities across 32 states. This will fund improvements such as terminal expansions, baggage system upgrades, runway safety enhancements, and the planning necessary to begin these projects.
“We are using funds from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to make historic investments in our nation’s airports to address a backlog of needs and accommodate growing air travel demand,” said Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. “These investments—some already completed and many more still underway—ensure the traveling public will have safer and more accessible and efficient airports for decades to come.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Secretary Buttigieg and transportation officials as they seek to shore up air travel infrastructure.
- For Administrator Whitaker to seek God’s guidance as he heads the FAA.
