The Jacksonville Aviation Authority (JAA) has awarded Balfour
Beatty its terminal expansion project at Jacksonville International
Airport (JIA). To meet the airport’s surge in passenger traffic,
including a 16 percent increase in 2018, the project includes
construction of the new Concourse B that will add six gates.
In addition to adding six new gates with the construction of
Concourse B, Balfour Beatty will coordinate with JAA and the design
team Jacobs/RS&H during the preconstruction phase to also
finalize plans for secondary areas of terminal expansion. Secondary
areas of expansion could include concessions, airfield circulation
and apron expansion, a third level for additional concessions and
lounge space, administrative and operational areas, baggage system
expansion, among other work.
“Our selection for this great project is a tribute to our
aviation industry expertise and strong 19-year history with the
Jacksonville Aviation Authority that has blossomed into a dynamic
partnership,” said Scott Skidelsky, Balfour Beatty’s president of
buildings operations in Florida. “This is an exciting project for
Jacksonville and our team is honored to be their construction
partner in delivering Concourse B to help meet the airport’s
unprecedented growth in passenger traffic.”
