New Concourses and More

 

The MoreRNO Program has entered the next phase of construction. Four projects are underway, the new concourse A, new concourse B, Police and Airport Authority Headquarters (The HQ) and Ground Transportation Center (GTC), and the bulk of construction will land within the next two years. This is the largest infrastructure investment in the airport’s history. MoreRNO will bring more of what travelers love, including greater convenience, more amenities, local bites and brands, and spaces that showcase art and the natural beauty of Reno-Tahoe. For project timelines and details, visit the program overview page

Demolition Noise and Vibrations

 

Active construction is taking place outside Concourse C on the ground floor. Most of the passenger experience will remain the same, but some may hear demolition activity and feel vibrations at the C gates through the end of the year.
