Bwi Airport, MD

BWI International Airport Improvements

This international airport, which services the Baltimore and Washington DC area, has been around since the 1950s.

Over this long stretch of time wear and tear takes its toll and, at the same time, new technologies are invented.

Now, with some help from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, $41 million will be spent in upgrading the Baltimore Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.

This investment will provide safety enhancements, environmental upgrades, and create a few hundred jobs.

BWI Recovery Act grant from FAA creates jobs, safety enhancements, and environmental upgrades

As the country continues to pull away from the recession, these types of infrastructure improvements will make the country more capable of sustaining a strong economic growth.
