The San Diego County Regional Airport Authority revealed early details of its Terminal 1 replacement plan, which is scheduled to launch in 2020 and be completed in 2023. The project is estimated not to exceed $3 billion, the authority says.
In addition to a new facility to replace the 51-year-old Terminal 1, project elements also include a new on-airport entry roadway, dual-level roadway and curb front at the new Terminal 1, expanded close-in parking, and major airfield efficiency improvements. The Airport Development Plan is a master plan designed to optimize the 661-acre site to accommodate the region’s demand for air travel and maintain high levels of passenger satisfaction.
