Tornado repairs at St. Louis airport may cost $30M

ST. LOUIS (AP) - The cost to repair tornado damage at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport could reach as much as $30 million.

Airport officials said Wednesday they've received estimates of $25 million to $30 million to restore Terminal 1 and Concourse C following the April 22 tornado.

The airport said it expects the total bill to be even higher, when its insurance company finishes calculating costs for the interruption of business, lost revenues and emergency repairs that were made.

Construction at the airport could take up to a year to complete.
