Includes the West Infill and TSA Checkpoint 3 expansion projects, which will add over 75,000 square feet to the Barbara Jordan Terminal over 4 levels and allow for the expansion of Checkpoint 3 from 2 to up to 8 lanes. Midfield Taxiways- 13188.003 ● Design and construct two concrete parallel midfield taxiways with taxiway connectors and access to the existing maintenance ramp. The project includes constructing two taxiway bridges, utility relocation, drainage improvements, demolition of existing pavements and infrastructure, new airfield lighting and signage, new security fencing, a new reclaimed water bulk refiling station and modifications to roadways and parking lots. West Gate Expansion – 13184.014 ● The main expansion project will add 3 new Gates (short term) to the west end of the Barbara Jordan Terminal (BJT) and replace 12 aging boarding gates. This project will provide infrastructure needed for passenger growth, comfort, health and safety. West Garage – Lot B – 13308.002 ● Planning, design and construction of a multi-level parking garage with an estimated capacity of 7,700 spaces. The designated location for this garage is the current Lot B surface parking area (approx. 326,000 sf), situated directly north of the existing Blue Garage. This project creates additional parking to replace parking and revenue lost due to construction and to meet future demand connected with enplanement growth forecasts associated with the addition of Concourse B. 18 Project Descriptions Atrium Infill – 13309.002 ● Project will add more square feet to the terminal for security screening, bag check and passenger processing by filling in existing open space above baggage claim. The project will add approximately 12,000 square feet of concourse level floor plate to the Barbara Jordan Terminal. The elevated slab will be constructed while the existing vertical circulation is kept in place. The project will also upgrade the mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems as needed. The suspended slab will likely require enhancements to the existing structural capacity. Utility Infrastructure Campus-Wide – 13307.001 ● Design and construct utility systems including reclaimed water, storm drainage, water quality pond/deicing pond, detention pond, hydronic piping (chilled and hot water), AUS medium voltage electrical power distribution center, ductbank, and electrical distribution system, redundant electrical duct banks (as an option), information technology/telecommunications duct banks, and other utility extensions that may be identified as the Journey With AUS program progress and their seamless coordination with other Journey With AUS facilities projects. 19 Central Utility Plant – 13307.002 ● Design, construct and commission a new, appropriately sized CUP and associated Thermal Energy Storage (TES) utilizing current efficiency technology, equipment, and operational processes to provide reliable, redundant and resilient service for the existing and future AUS cooling and heating loads. Concourse B and Tunnel – 13185.001 ● New Concourse B with at least 20 gates and a tunnel to the Barbara Jordan Terminal and all required apron space. Work includes addition of an interface connector at the Barbara Jordan Terminal to provide required seamless path for passengers to enter the tunnel and space for the baggage handling system and utilities. Arrivals and Departures Hall – 13182.001 ● New Arrivals and Departures Hall for all ticketing and domestic baggage claim. Work includes the removal of the Red Garage, relocation/expansion of curbside roadway and installation of all utility infrastructure as needed. Removal of existing ticketing in the existing Barbara Jordan Terminal is also included. Thank You!
