A new 14-gate concourse at Dulles International Airport could open as soon as 2026 under plans outlined Wednesday.
Members of the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority’s Board of Directors received their first official briefing on the $674.7 million project, which would be the most significant upgrade to the airport in more than a decade. The planned 400,000-square-foot building would replace the single-story structure that handles regional and commuter flights at Dulles.
Passengers who now fly out of Concourse A use outdoor, ground-level, covered walkways to board flights leaving from regional A gates. In the new concourse, those gates would be replaced with jet bridges in a building with other amenities, including a pet-relief area, new restrooms, concessions and larger seating areas.
