PASADENA, CA (June 18, 2018) – Parsons has been awarded a $158 million, 2.5-year contract extension for ongoing project management/construction management for Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA). Parsons serves as owner’s representative for the multibillion-dollar Landside Access Modernization Program (LAMP) at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
LAMP will transform the airport by adding an automated people mover (APM), intermodal transportation facility, consolidated rental car facility (ConRAC), and associated roadway improvements. LAMP is one of the largest infrastructure programs in the United States, and the $5 billion APM design-build-finance-operate-maintain contract is one of the largest public works projects, and largest public-private partnership (P3), in California’s history.
“Parsons is extremely pleased to continue our role as LAWA’s owner’s representative on its transformative modernization program,” said Mike Johnson, Parsons Group President. “The APM will reduce vehicle congestion in the central terminal area, connect with L.A. Metro’s regional transportation system, reduce emissions, and provide reliable access to the terminals and passenger pick-up and drop-off locations.”
The APM and ConRAC are scheduled to be operational in 2023.

Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
