Partial lane closure for MIA garage construction begins May 1
Due to the construction of the Flamingo Parking Garage extension, Miami International Airport’s lower drive (arrivals level) will be reduced to three lanes from concourses G to J (Doors 20 to 33) from May 1, 2024, to November 2024. Dedicated taxi lanes will remain open, and hotel shuttles will pick up and drop off at the departure level. Airport visitors should plan ahead and allow extra time when traveling through this area. Dedicated Miami-Dade Aviation Department officers will be on-site to assist airport users and ensure a smooth traffic flow.
On February 20, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, Miami-Dade County commissioners, and leaders from MIA and Lemartec Corporation gathered at MIA to celebrate the groundbreaking for the new 2,240-space, seven-level parking garage extension. The $136-million facility, scheduled for completion in summer 2026, will be adjacent to MIA’s current Flamingo garage and substantially increase parking for passengers and employees.
The new garage will also include future-ready features such as 50 spaces for electric vehicle charging, energy-efficient LED lighting fixtures, and a Parksmart Silver Certification design. This global certification program defines, measures, and recognizes high-performing, sustainable garages.
Miami International Airport, America’s busiest airport for international freight and the second busiest for international passengers, is receiving an unprecedented investment of $14 billion in capital improvements and maintenance upgrades. MIA offers more flights to Latin America and the Caribbean than any other U.S. airport and is also the leading economic engine for Miami-Dade County and the state of Florida, generating business revenue of $212 billion and approximately 60 percent of all international visitors to Florida annually.
