Work has begun on a new parking garage and consolidated rental car facility at Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport, GSP announced Feb. 27.

Work is expected to be complete in early 2026.

The garage’s public parking section will offer time-saving Park Assist technology to enable customers to quickly locate available spaces. The rental car portion will include a transaction lobby and reserved spaces for premium rental car customer vehicle pick-ups, quick drop off, fueling and car wash capabilities.

The new parking is aimed at meeting increased demand following the announcement of eight new airline routes to be added later this year, according to GSP President and CEO Dave Edwards in an announcement of the project’s start.

Parking Garage C is one of a series of projects designed to provide additional parking capacity, enhance rental car operations, reduce roadway congestion and enhance the airport’s ability to accommodate future growth, the statement said.

In 2021, two new surface parking lots were added, and in 2023 the airport’s terminal roadway system was redesigned allowing for future airport expansion.

The Garage C project is part of $427.3 million in capital projects planned at the airport in the next six years.
