 Airport Improvements :

 Capital Improvement Program: MIA's $6.2 billion Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is well underway, encompassing all aspects of airport operations, from the Terminal and roadways to the cargo facilities and the airfield.
 Fourth Runway: One of the major projects of the CIP was the construction of MIA's Fourth Runway. Operational in September 2003, the 8,600-foot runway has increased MIA's airfield capacity by 25%, extending the ability of the Airport to sustain growth, while decreasing the cost of delays to airlines and passengers.
 Terminal: Extending from MIA’s Central terminal, the South and North Terminals will add over 4 million square feet to MIA’s existing 3.5 million square feet of space. The new South Terminal is now open and adds 1.7 million square feet to MIA. The North Terminal will encompass more than 3.2 million square feet upon its phased completion in 2011. At that point, the North and South Terminals will have a total of 130 gates, with 100 international gates and 30 domestic gates. The Terminal will have 556 ticket counters and 120 self-service check-in devices.
 Cargo: MIA's cargo facility development program that began in 1992 has been completed, providing the Airport with over 2.7 million square feet in seventeen new cargo buildings. Apron space has grown to over 3.8 million square feet, with 41 common-use cargo positions and 23 leased cargo positions

 Roadway Improvements:

 Central Boulevard: To accommodate forecasted growth, improvement programs include: widening of Central Boulevard, new service roads, wider bridges and improved access to parking facilities.
 25th Street Viaduct: Construction is currently underway on the East Segment of the NW 25th Viaduct Project. The limits for the East Segment of the project are from SR 826 to NW 67th Avenue. The FDOT project includes the reconstruction / widening of NW 25th Street and the construction of a viaduct from just east of SR 826 to NW 68th Ave. where it curves south terminating at NW 22nd Street, adjacent to the MIA Westside cargo area.

 MIA Mover: Construction is currently underway for the elevated train that will connect MIA and the future Rental Car Center (RCC) and the Miami Intermodal Center (MIC). The Mover will run through Central Boulevard with the capacity to transport more than 3,000 passengers per hour.
 Rental Car Center (RCC): A 3.4 million square foot facility opened on July 13, 2010. The RCC consolidates under one roof the operations of 16 rental car companies, with a combined inventory of 6,500 rental cars. The Center is projected to serve approximately 28,000 customers daily and has the capability to wash and re-fuel 300 vehicles per hour because of its multi-level fueling system - the first of its kind in the U.S.

 Miami Intermodal Center (MIC): Next to the RCC will be the MIC, a massive ground transportation hub being developed by the State of Florida Department of Transportation linking rail, light rail, automobile and bus traffic under one roof.

What's New

  Passengers: Miami International Airport reached a new all-time high for annual passenger traffic in 2011 with 38.3 million passengers and an increase of 7.3 percent over 2010. International passengers led the way with a nine-percent increase over 2010 to 18.4 million travelers, while domestic passengers also surged by 5.8 percent to nearly 19.9 million.

  Cargo: MIA matched its all-time record of two million tons of freight, which was first set in 2007 before the global recession.
