The project announced Thursday by the Metropolitan Airports Commission and Delta Airlines, the airport’s dominant carrier, is expected to be completed by late 2025, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported.

The plan calls for a unified design for the concourses and about 75 Delta gates, with new flooring, wall finishes and brighter LED lighting. Technology upgrades will improve flight and gate information screens. More power outlets will be added at gate seating.
The MAC is investing $182.5 million in the project, with Delta contributing $60 million. No taxpayer funds will be used.
