AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting firm, today announced it has been selected by the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority (Authority) to provide program management services supporting the Capital Improvement Plan and other projects at the San Diego International Airport (SAN). Once complete, the projects will improve critical infrastructure, access, and sustainability features to meet the needs of the airport’s current and future demand for travel. This includes management of the $3.8 billion New Terminal 1 (NT1) program and the modernization of Terminal 2 East (T2E) that will transform the traveling experience at SAN.We are thrilled to help deliver the revitalized San Diego International Airport and support the Authority’s vision for the future,” said Mark Southwell, chief executive of AECOM’s global Transportation business. “Recognized by Engineering News-Record as the number one transportation design firm, we look forward to collaborating with the Authority on this transformative program.”
In its role, AECOM will provide a full range of program, project and construction management services, as well as diversified specialized services. NT1, the airport’s biggest project ever, will include a new, on-airport entrance road to provide travelers with a faster route to the airport. New bicycle lanes and a pedestrian path will connect the airport to San Diego’s surrounding communities. NT1 also secures space outside the terminals to accommodate a future direct connection to the region’s public transit network.
“AECOM has worked closely with the Authority since 2005 and we look forward to building on that legacy to deliver this set of long-awaited upgrades,” said Drew Jeter, chief executive of AECOM’s Program Management global business line. “These improvements, guided by our program management expertise, will enhance passenger experience, safety, and airport design, while also boosting the regional economy through job creation and increased tourism. This program serves as a shining example of AECOM’s ongoing commitment to fostering sustainable and thriving communities.”
AECOM’s past support of major capital development projects at SAN includes the “Green Build,” the airport’s 494,000-square-foot, three-story addition to Terminal 2 West; a new Federal Inspection Services (FIS) facility to accommodate growing international service; a consolidated rental car facility; and a new parking plaza for T2E/W. The Company has also contributed to numerous small to mid-sized capital projects necessary to improve terminal, airside, and landside facilities across the airport campus.
