Miami International Airport’s Concourse D Skytrain resumes operations – NBC 6 South Florida
The sky train at Miami International Airport has reopened after undergoing extensive repairs and testing for the last six months.
The reopening of the Concourse D Skytrain cost a whopping $4.2 million.
Miami-Dade County is also making record investments in modernizing MIA – with an investment of $7 billion in capital improvements and $1.7 billion in maintenance upgrades under its Modernization in Action (M.I.A.) Plan.
“I am thrilled that most of our Concourse D Skytrain will soon be operational again,” said Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava in a statement. “Our unwavering commitment to passenger and employee safety prompted the temporary suspension of Skytrain services last September. With the impending reopening, travelers can expect seamless access to most Concourse D gates in just minutes”
This reopening is the third out of four Concourse D Skytrain stations that are being reintroduced.
Skytrain service has resumed between stations 2, 3, and 4 (gates D20 to D60), and station 1 (near gate D16) is slated to rejoin operations by summer.
