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.

New Runway: One of the major projects of the CIP was the construction of MIA’s Fourth Runway. Operational in September 2003, the new 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 late 2010.  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 48 common-use cargo positions for large aircraft and 32 leased cargo positions
(19 large / 13 small aircraft).

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.
