Even with the new rate increase, parking costs remain lower at WRWA. A study presented by Kimley-Horn Consultants to the Oklahoma City Airport Trust in August found that WRWA’s existing rates are some of the lowest among peer airports. The last time the parking prices were increased at WRWA was in 2009. The cost for the surface lot project is estimated to be $6.7 million. The new surface lot will provide additional long-term parking capacity, a larger cell phone waiting area and will facilitate the future construction of an additional parking garage. Additionally, design will soon get under way for a new 1,750-space surface parking lot.

The cost for these projects is approximately $7.8 million.

The daily rates will increase by one dollar for all surface lots and two dollars for the five-story parking garages.

The rate increase is necessary to fund numerous improvement projects currently underway and the future expansion of parking facilities. The resolution next goes to the City Council. The Oklahoma City Airport Trust today adopted a resolution to adjust the rates of all parking facilities at Will Rogers World Airport (WRWA).
