LAX Airport $2 Billion Midfield Satellite Concourse Feb '20 Construction Tour

The satellite concourse, estimated at $2 Billion, will be a remote facility initially served by an airport busing operation and a passenger access tunnel connection to the Bradley West Terminal but eventually connected by an automated people mover system (APM). The concourse will be designed to accommodate 22 wide-body (code E aircraft) swing gates serving domestic and international flights. The first phase of the concourse encloses approximately 750,000 square feet of passenger and operational space with 11 to 13 wide-body gates, 50,000 square feet of passenger tunnel access, 80,000 square feet of utility tunnels, and a ramp level bus station for transfers to other domestic terminals. Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) is in the midst of a $14 billion Capital Improvement Program at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), projected to last through 2023. The LAX modernization program is considered the largest public works program in the history of the City of Los Angeles.
