USA from the long-term parking garage to the airport terminal . The construction company is also working closely with the FAA for construction and equipment approval that maintains full visibility for the control tower , ensuring safety both on the ground and in the air .
Paving the way for further growth With construction well on its way , Turner Construction estimates that the first two levels will be open for business by April of 2017 , followed with the launch of rental car operations by March 2018 . Once open , the benefits will be clear .
“ The customer service aspect that ’ s being enhanced in this program is huge ,” said Wildt . “ It ’ s really going to elevate the airport ’ s ability to offer that customer service to the passengers , and really the satisfaction that everyone flying through that airport is going to experience .”
But the completion of this project will not be the end of growth for SAT — rather , it ’ s just the beginning of a more expansive plan for the airport . SAT sees further expansion in the future , with even a new terminal in the works down the line , and the smarter transportation and parking options put into play with the new CONRAC facility allow it to effectively support that growth .
“ It ties into the master plan to grow San Antonio as an airport over the next many years ,” said Wildt . “ This asset that they ’ re creating gives them the ability to continue that vision of growth and expansion in a very smart way .”
