Project Elements

Airfield & Terminal Modernization Project Elements

Airfield icon Airfield Improvements



What are we proposing?

  • Reconfigure taxiways and runway exits to meet current FAA design standards
  • Improve runway exit configurations to enhance pilot visibility
  • Extend Taxiway D westerly to better manage airfield operations and to meet FAA standards
  • Improve Taxiways C & D for access to new Concourse 0 and Terminal 9 facilities

Why are we proposing it?

  • Reduces wait times on the airfield, which would lead to less aircraft idling and a decrease in air pollutant emissions
  • Increases operational efficiency, which reduces delays and enhances safety

What are we proposing?

    Concourse 0 Features:
  • Develop a new Concourse 0 as an easterly extension of Terminal 1
  • Provide full-service international processing capabilities
  • Provide up to 1.275 million square feet of facilities

  • Develop a new Terminal 9 southeast of Sepulveda Blvd./Century Boulevard Intersection

  • Replaces 15 of the West Remote Gates that would be removed by the extension of Taxiway D or decommissioned as part of the proposed Project
  • Provides a better passenger experience, including additional concessions (restaurants & shops), and extra seating, check-in areas, and security screening
  • Creates jobs and business opportunities for local and small businesses during construction and operations

Airfield icon Landside Improvements
