At present, the two terminals at Pittsburgh airport are located in different buildings and passengers have to travel from one building to the other.
In September last year, Allegheny County Airport Authority unveiled its plan to upgrade the 25-year-old airport.
The redevelopment plan includes abandoning the current landside terminal and inter-terminal tram and replacing them with a new landside building between terminals C and D, in addition to reducing the number of gates from the existing 75 to 51.
The modernisation plan also includes a six-storey parking garage with spaces for 3,000 cars including a rental car facility and transport.
