Pittsburgh International Airport is betting heavily that a surge in air cargo traffic over the last few years will continue to produce fruit.
Allegheny County Airport Authority board members awarded $44 million in contracts Oct. 28 for the construction of a state-of-the-art cargo facility on Pittsburgh International property in Findlay. The contract awards came the same day the authority, which operates Pittsburgh International, reported a 12.8% increase in cargo traffic in the first quarter compared to the first three months of 2021.
