Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport will receive $4 million as part of a grant program from the Federal Aviation Administration.

The money will go toward crack repairs and joint filling on the existing terminal apron, and shifting and reconstructing an existing taxiway.

The money is one of 90 airport-related infrastructure grants across 34 states announced Friday by the Biden Administration, totaling $186.7 million.

The projects are funded under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Airport Infrastructure Grants (AIG) program, part of $25 billion included in the law for airport improvements, such as terminal expansions, baggage system upgrades and runway safety enhancements.

Traffic at the airport was up 11% over the previous year in April. Last year, BHM saw more than 3 million passengers, which was 14% more than 2022.

BHM offers nonstop service to 20 airport destinations in 17 cities around the country.
