Renovations Begin at Tampa International Airport

 Tampa International Airport is beginning a three-year expansion and renovation that will cost almost a billion dollars.

The first steps began Tuesday with the closure of some taxi and bus stands near the baggage claims area.

The biggest changes at the airport will be the construction of a massive rental car facility and a people mover that will run for over a mile.

The $943 million project is scheduled to be completed in 2017.
