The new Silver Ramp at MSP Airport's Terminal 1 partially opened in August 2020 providing travelers with improved transit and rental car facilities – and Minnesota's tallest escalator.
Among the services making the move to the first floor of the ramp are:
· All rental car services
· Off-airport parking shuttles
· All bus services, including Jefferson Lines, Landline and charter buses
While the rental car customer service counters are located on Level 1, pick-up and drop-off of rental cars take place on levels 2-5 of the new ramp, and Level 5 is served by the tallest escalator in the state of Minnesota.
The escalator is 55 feet tall, travels about 100 feet per minute and is capable of transporting 9,000 people per hour.
