Construction projects to modernize and expand Hartsfield-Jackson International will cost $640 million more than anticipated, and airport officials are seeking Atlanta City Council approval to apply for additional federal funding. The cost of renovations to the domestic terminal facade, construction of pedestrian bridges from the parking decks and relocation of flight information displays will go up by $275 million.That’s mostly due to an extra $240.4 million for financing and interest because of the additional costs incurred from switching to bond funding.
