| Work Detail |
The San Diego County Regional Airport Authority has picked Aecom to provide programme management for the $3.8bn New Terminal 1 at San Diego International Airport, the modernisation of its Terminal 2 East, and other capital works.
The current Terminal 1 was designed to handle 2.5 million passengers a year when it was finished in 1967, the authority says. That figure has grown to around 20 million.
A Turner-Flatiron joint venture won a design-build contract to build its replacement in September 2020. At the time, the contract value was listed as $2.265bn.
The new terminal was to be 1.2 million sq ft in area, and would boost the number of gates from 11 to 30.
The JV celebrated the topping out of its steel frame in November last year.
Aecom said the new T1 will be the airport’s biggest ever project.
It will add a new entrance road, bicycle lanes and a pedestrian path, plus a hub to connect to regional transit.
Aecom previously helped deliver the airport’s “Green Build,” a 494,000 sq ft, three-story addition to Terminal 2 West. |
