Trump’s $22B Dulles Airport Overhaul | Roanoke News

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

President Trump is set to unveil a $22 billion overhaul of Dulles International Airport, targeting the notorious, decades-old “people movers” with a sleek new train system and expanded walkways to slash travel chaos. This isn’t just airport upgrades—it’s part of his broader D.C. legacy push, including a new White House ballroom and a Lincoln Memorial arch. Once seen as a novelty, those clunky shuttles have become a travel nightmare, even causing a crash last November that hospitalized 18. After years of incremental improvements—new runways, parking, and transit—this massive investment aims to finally modernize Dulles, the president himself calling it “incorrectly designed” and “not a good airport.” Expect major changes soon.
