"O'Hare Airport Rebuild: Key Changes and Fast-Tracking Terminal Projects"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Chicago Tribune
After months of negotiations, city officials propose a change in the sequencing of construction for the O'Hare International Airport rebuild, aiming to accelerate the completion of the new Global Terminal over satellite concourses. The proposed change comes after rising construction costs and delays, with airlines seeking to ensure the new terminal's stability. United and American airlines are reviewing the proposal, while U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin urges the construction of both satellite terminals along with the Global Terminal to increase gate capacity.
