Project Description

Project Description:

This $35.4 million new terminal project includes a two-building, 48,500-square-foot facility with a ticketing lobby, a baggage claim area, passenger and baggage screening, restrooms, administration offices, support areas, waiting lounges and boarding areas as well as site improvements and airport apron construction. The new terminal will replace an aging facility and is designed to accommodate economic growth and increased tourism in the county, to further connect the community with major metropolitan areas and to continue to serve the Cal Poly university campus. The project has an 18-month construction schedule and is anticipated to be completed in June of 2017.

OM Expertise: OrgMetrics developed a tailored partnering program of monthly sessions including the executive team and the core project team. Partnering participants include San Luis Obispo County (owner), RS&H (designer), Arcadis (construction manager) and Q&D Construction (contractor). Early key issues the team resolved include challenging soil conditions and managing construction during the El Nino rainy season.
