Brown Announces New Investments At Akron-Canton Regional Airport

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) announced two new investments at the Akron-Canton Regional Airport totaling $3.6 million. The investments will be used to replace four baggage carousels in the airport terminal's baggage claim area and to replace and install two passenger boarding bridges and associated pre-conditioned air units.

"Ohio airports are vital infrastructure supporting travel and commerce in our state," Brown said. "These investments will enhance operations at Akron-Canton Regional Airport and improve travel for Ohioans."

The Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration awarded these investments as a part of its FY 2025 Airport Terminal Program. The Airport Terminal Program is made possible through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which Brown helped write and pass.
