O’Hare Airport is about to get a multi-million dollar upgrade, officials announced Monday.
The $65 million investment was unveiled by the U.S. Transportation Secretary, who said the funds would in part be used to build new runways at the world’s fourth-busiest airport.
“These construction of runways will help Chicago maintain its status as one of the busiest in the world,” FAA Assistant Administrator Bailey Edwards said.
The FAA said construction is expected to start soon.
