Austin-Bergstrom International Airport revealed renderings for its West Gate Expansion, and the upgrades are looking pretty swanky.

Construction on the $165 million addition is expected to begin this spring and include:

An additional 30,000 sqft on the concourse level
A new mezzanine
12 new boarding bridges
Three new gates

In case you haven’t heard, this is just one of many projects taking place at ABIA. Other upgrades in the works include:

Filling in the empty space above baggage claim to add more square footage for bag checking and security screening, at a cost of $175 million
A new centralized bagging handling system with the ability to process 4,000 bags per hour, at a cost of $176.5 million
Expanding TSA Checkpoint 3
A new central utility plant and Austin Energy substation, at a cost of $14 million
