Terminal A was demolished so a new terminal could be built.

The new terminal opened to great fanfare in February 2023.

The parking garages from the two terminals remain in good shape and will be kept.

According to the fact sheet, "the demolition contract includes retrofitting certain electrical/communication systems, and extending a pedestrian walkway, to allow future use of the garages.

The garages will be used for employee parking and overflow public parking.

Ten months of construction work is planned, but no impact is expected for those using the new terminal.
