A sleek, modern terminal is coming to one of the busiest international airports in the U.S. and it could ease passenger congestion as soon as 2021.
Newark Liberty International Airport is forging ahead with a $2.7 billion redevelopment plan to overhaul its oldest terminal and build a one-million square-foot terminal with 33 gates and a new 3,000-car parking garage.
The project, named Terminal One, broke ground last June. Last week, the Board of Commissioners for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates the airport, approved additional funding and picked the team that will design and construct the terminal for $1.41 billion: Tutor Perini Corporation and Parsons Transportation Group Inc.
