The award is part of an infrastructure program that has awarded billions to airports across the country.
The federal government granted $8.2 million to Hollywood Burbank Airport for its terminal update project as part of an infrastructure program that has awarded billions to airports across the country to expand terminals, upgrade baggage area systems and improve runway safety. The Federal Aviation Administration granted $289 million on Monday to 129 airports in 40 states, including $66.7 million to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and $26.6 million to Indianapolis International Airport.
“This latest round of funding will support key improvements to terminals, runways and baggage systems and build on the work this administration is doing to modernize our aviation infrastructure,' Buttigieg said. Hollywood Burbank Airport, formerly known as Bob Hope, broke ground in January to develop a 14-gate, 355,000-square-foot terminal with more than 6,600 parking spaces. The Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Authority’s estimated budget for the project is roughly $1.3 billion.
