为匹兹堡国际机场服务的主要航空公司中有五家已经签署了新的70万平方英尺的陆续航站楼的长期租赁，为今年夏天晚些时候的大流行销售14亿美元的现代化计划扫清了大规模延期的14亿美元现代化计划。

航空公司的承诺使阿勒格尼县机场管理局能够确保债券融资并开始采购结构钢，基金会，地下公用事业和其他新码头的建筑套餐，该终端将巩固票务，安全检查站和行李索赔操作。

PJ Dick/Hunt和Turner Construction是该计划的建筑经理，该计划是由Gensler，HDR和Luis Vidal + Architects团队设计的。

Originally scheduled to begin construction in April 2020, the terminal was grounded along with the rest of the U.S. commercial aviation industry by the coronavirus pandemic. With the new year bringing gradually upward trends in passenger traffic, Pittsburgh’s tenant airlines endorsed spending $182 million for site preparation work, which got underway in April and is being performed by Independence Excavating, W.G. Tomko and Westmoreland Electric.

6月18日机场管理局批准了124美元。4-million contract award to Mascaro Construction Co., Pittsburgh, for structural steel and concrete decking, plus $6.3 million for other project-related expenditures.

The year-long delay, combined with airline-approved design changes, added approximately $300 million to the modernization program’s original estimated cost, announced in 2017. Other program facets include a multi-modal complex to house a 3,300-space parking garage and rental car facilities, parking lots and roadways.

机场管理局估计，该项目将需要12,000吨钢，94,000吨混凝土和超过354,000平方英尺的木材材料，并在可能的情况下在本地采购。

完工计划于2024年底完成，新设施将于2025年初运营。除了提高空间灵活性外，机场管理局表示，新码头的维护成本将比现有近30年历史的现有设施的维护成本要少得多。一旦现代化计划完成，它将被拆除。
