A consortium led by ACS and Hochtief has been chosen as the recommended developer for a large-scale modernization PPP rail project at Los Angeles International airport. The consortium consists of ACS Infrastructure Development (Iridium), Dragados USA, Hochtief PPP Solutions, Flatiron, Fluor, Balfour Beatty and Bombardier.
The public-private partnership (PPP) rail project includes planning, financing, construction, and 25-year operation of an automated people mover located 15 to 20 meters above the ground which will have six stops connecting new parking facilities, hire car points and metro light rail stations with the airline terminals.
A track of around 3.6 km in length, on which up to nine trains will be able to travel simultaneously, will in the future improve passengers’ access to the terminals of the second-largest airport in the USA. The project, with a construction price of USD 1.95 billon, includes the delivery of 44 Bombardier APM vehicles. ACS Infrastructure Development and Hochtief PPP Solutions each have an 18 percent stake in the consortium (ACS Group 36%).
