Denver International Airport Secures $135M Contract for North Terminal Expansion

Mile High Delivery Partners, a joint venture of AtkinsRéalis USA and H.J. Russell & Company, was awarded a 10-year contract worth up to $135 million to manage the North Terminal Expansion at Denver International Airport. This contract covers planning coordination, risk mitigation, and cost control, but does not include the actual construction of the new facilities. The expansion is part of the airport’s strategy to meet future passenger demand, as the existing Jeppesen Terminal served over 82 million passengers in 2024, exceeding its design capacity of roughly 50 million.

The expansion is a key element of Denver International Airport’s Vision 100 strategy, which aims for 100 million annual passengers, and Operation 2045, which targets over 120 million annual travelers. The project is intended to add ticketing, security, customs, and international baggage-claim facilities to improve the airport’s capacity to process international arrivals.
