Milwaukee Airport Gets Major Upgrade | Milwaukee News

Milwaukee Airport’s getting a $14.4 million federal upgrade to fix two taxiways, one runway, and convert another into a taxiway—mostly for the Wisconsin Air National Guard—with construction just around the corner and no flight disruptions expected. This is part of a $481 million national push to modernize airports under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, aimed at ushering in a “Golden Age of Transportation.” While some projects faced delays and legal challenges—including a lawsuit by Milwaukee County over alleged political interference—the funding remains critical for keeping runways and taxiways safe and efficient for travelers ahead.
