LAX – Auxiliary Curbs (ITF East and West)

Civil and structural engineering services, as well as protective design, for the Intermodal Transportation Facilities (ITF East/West) Auxiliary Curbs projects. This will serve as the main connection point for passengers at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) via public transportation, taxi, transportation network companies (Uber/Lyft), or shuttle. These facilities will include private vehicle parking, cell phone lot, shuttle connections, passenger pick-up and drop-off areas, and connections to ITF East and West Automated People Mover (APM) stations. This project will reduce airport traffic congestion and backups in the Central Terminal Area and on public streets by expanding and consolidating access to the ITF rotaries with new dedicated curbs that separate usage by TNCs, Taxis, Shuttles, and private vehicle traffic.

The ITF West Auxiliary Curbs will consist of approximately 5,200 LF of new curbs for passenger pick-up and drop-off areas to the east of the newly constructed LAX Economy Parking and Security Badging Office and expanded curbs connecting ITF West Auxiliary Curbs to ITF West APM station rotaries and a 64 stall surface parking lot.

The ITF East Auxiliary Curbs will consist of approximately 2,200 LF of new curbs for passenger pick-up and drop-off areas south of the APM ITF East station rotaries and a 198 stall cell phone parking lot.

KPFF is the lead civil engineer managing the design team for off-site improvements in addition to on-site drainage and LID design.
