PAH New Passenger Terminal Program
After nearly 70 years, the Barkley Regional Airport (PAH) was in need of an upgrade and began planning for a new $42 million airport terminal to better support future economic growth opportunities in Western Kentucky.
After a terminal siting, footprint study, and validation was conducted, our team designed a concept layout plan featuring a terminal apron and taxiway connectors, weather station relocation, a new passenger terminal, rental, employee, and passenger parking lots, an entrance drive, and rescue and maintenance facilities. Encompassing roughly 75 acres, the new 25,000-square-foot terminal features a modern and efficient design for a better, easier, and more enjoyable travel experience. With more robust travel options and a design allowing for future expansion, the possibilities are endless.
