Plans have been announced to greatly increase the size of the Mexico City airport. Two runways will be built over the dry bed of what was once Texcoco Lake and an additional terminal will be constructed. The project is not expected to be completed in less than 10 years. Plans to develop an entirely new airport were dropped when farmers objected to the expropriation of their lands. The new facility is aimed at doubling present capacity.
