Millions in federal grants going to CT airports for projects. Here’s how they’ll benefit travelers

Two Connecticut airports are receiving federal grants for ongoing improvements, with Bradley International Airport garnering the bulk of the $8.7 million, and Danbury Municipal Airport receiving just over $225,000. The Connecticut congressional delegation stated that Bradley International Airport is getting $8,537,126 to add to the ongoing costs of expanding the existing Terminal A by 25,230 feet. On Monday, the Connecticut Airport Authority said that Bradley International Airport reached one of two major milestones of its construction projects, which will be aided by this most recent grant, and are “officially kicking off the gradual rollout of more than $250 million in infrastructure improvements.” The milestone is the opening of the corridor in airport’s east concourse. The construction, which began in April 2023, is adding two corridors to the east and west sides of the main terminal, adjacent to each of the two concourses. This June, the corridor opened in the east concourse.
