JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The city issued a permit Monday for contractor Balfour Beatty Construction LLC to build the third Jacksonville International Airport parking garage at a project cost of $92 million, the Jacksonville Daily Record reported.
The six-level reinforced concrete parking garage will add 2,000 spaces next to the existing six-level daily parking structure at the airport.

Michael Stewart, who works with the Jacksonville Aviation Authority, said the project, along with the new concourse B, has been in the works for a while, especially since construction at the airport has been perpetually delayed following the economic downturn in 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Stewart adds that the airport will experience some “tight days” as construction continues on the garage, especially around the holidays.
“We usually announce to go online and see what’s available,” he said.
The garage will be located south of hourly parking and daily parking garages.
Construction is scheduled to be completed in June 2026, six months before the new six-gate Concourse B opens for service.
