AECOM Hunt, in a joint venture, served as CM for the Maynard H. Jackson Jr. International Terminal at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
This 1,430,000 SF terminal includes new gates, custom offices, an Advanced People Mover (APM) station, a new baggage handling system, two new parking structures, elevated roadways and an APM train/utility connector to the existing Concourse E. In addition, the team completed gate, baggage, fuel pit and jet bridge modifications at the existing Concourse E.
The new terminal added 12 new international boarding gates and support areas. The north-facing window wall includes a cable-stayed glazing system that supports the glass wall with no metal framing, providing travelers with a panoramic view of the downtown Atlanta skyline.
Passenger facilities include ticketing and check-in counters, arriving passenger baggage facilities, departing passenger security checkpoint, gate waiting areas, various types of concessions and passenger gate waiting areas. Back-of-house support facilities include offices for the airlines, Atlanta Police, U.S. Customs and the Transportation Security Agency (TSA).
The new terminal incorporates the latest security features in baggage inspection and customs processing.
