City funds east side affordable housing
South Terminal now closed at airport The South Terminal at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport shut down April 1 after less than a decade in operation. It will be demolished to make way for new midfield taxiways as part of the airport’s expansion, including a new 26-gate con- course and temporary six-gate Concourse M. Zooming in Concourse M, to be located on the west side of ABIA’s airfield, will operate while the main airport terminals are built and expanded. The new facility is expected to open in 2028. Unlike the South Terminal, the 37,537-square-foot Concourse M will only be accessible via shuttle bus from the airport’s existing Gate 13. It will offer both national and local retail options.
