Project Description

​

The Salt Lake Airport is undergoing a major expansion and transformation, spanning several years. While operational, the airport is being delivered in phases.

​

Currently, in Phase 2, the airport is adding additional shops and restaurants, as well as additional gates to new destinations. Phase 2 also includes the build-out of Concourse A to the east with 22 gates. Five of the new gates will open in May of 2023 with the remaining gates scheduled to open in the fall/winter of 2023.

Phase 3 includes the opening of the Central Tunnel which connects A and B concourses, as well as a unique art installation called "The River Tunnel" by Artist, Gordon Huether.

In addition, Phase 3 will include the main entry point from the tunnel to Concourse B, which will be a mini-plaza complete with large-scale art installations by Gordon Huether known as The Canyon 2.0 and Northern Light. 

A unique aspect happening in Phase 3 includes the relocation of the large world map from Terminal 1 to Concourse B. Since 1961, thousands of passengers have walked around the world by simply passing through Terminal 1 at the Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC).
