Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act - Airport Terminals Program
Through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, a total of $5 billion has been allocated ($1 billion annually from 2022-2026) to provide competitive grants for airport terminal development projects that address the aging infrastructure of the nation’s airports. These grants will fund safe, sustainable and accessible airport terminals, airport-owned airport traffic control towers, and on-airport rail and bus projects that improve multimodal connections.
For FY25, another $1 billion has been made available for our nation's aging airport infrastructure. Here's how it's helping your community.
The fourth billion will fund projects across the country allowing airports to build, modernize and upgrade airport facilities; develop intermodal connections between the airport and other transportation modes to better serve our passengers and communities.
This interactive map shows how these funds are being invested.
