PHOENIX — The city of Phoenix has approved a project to extend the Sky Train at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport, according to KJZZ.
Their report states that an extension costing $99.6 million will add rail from Terminal 3 to the rental car center.
That extension will feature two new stations and the partial construction of a third station, realignment of Sky Harbor Circle, a ramp from I-10 eastbound to Sky Harbor Boulevard and some road maintenance and construction.
This video from Phoenix Sky Harbor’s YouTube channel depicts a model of the extension.
The Sky Train takes passengers to different parts of the Sky Harbor area and can take passengers to and from the Metro Light Rail stop at 44th Street and Washington Street in Phoenix.

Excellent progress here!
makes sense to have the Sky Train go west to the rental car building, is a smart move to help move people out to the facility.
the exit off the I-10 eastbound on to the airport drive is in need of a major update. Several times when I have had to drive down the I-10, I have seen many drivers mis judge the exit and need to either go with a big right turn to the ramp, or even have seen some stop in the gore area and try to back up to get on to the exit.
interested in how they are going to redo the main airport drive, that might take two to three years before that is done, will be a mess just to get to the terminals.
Nice!! Just make sure the signs for the people getting cars get on the right way!!
