$8-million doesn’t go far when talking “big plans”. A runway extension to 3,000m alone could cost $20-30 million (so I heard) due to the rock and watercourse issues present. A new terminal could allegedly cost $75-million+, especially if it was considered on the other side of the runway. I seem to recall hearing long ago that Moncton’s terminal cost around $100M but someone I spoke with in the airport design field scoffed at that and said that was very pricey. A new road getting to it could maybe be $750k to 1-million a kilometre depending on geotechnical conditions.
