PHOENIX — Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport received more multimillion-dollar grants from the federal government for two of its major ongoing construction projects.

Ahead of Independence Day last week, which marked the 250th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in the United States, the U.S. Department of Transportation announced it was giving out $1.776 billion in Federal Aviation Administration grants to airports across the country. Sky Harbor received just over $18 million for two projects.
