Denver Airport to Repurpose Underground Tunnels

Summary

The Denver International Airport (DEN) is planning to repurpose its underground tunnels into pedestrian walkways to provide an alternative to its troubled train system. The tunnels were originally built for the airport’s automated baggage system, which was never used. The project is expected to cost between $300 and $700 million and could begin construction as early as 2027. The airport’s train system is currently undergoing a $75 million upgrade, but officials are looking for a backup plan in case of outages.
