Skanska, a leading global construction and development firm, and joint venture partner, Halmar International, LLC, was awarded a contract by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to carry out the project, which will improve the airport’s roadway network by creating an easier to navigate and more user-friendly airport experience.

“Our team has worked at every major airport in the New York Metropolitan area, including more than 15 contracts working on every area of JFK airport. We know the airport and we understand the critical nature of aircraft operations and movements security, as well as safe access and customer experience,” said Chris Larsen, CEO of Halmar International, LLC. “Together with Skanska, we bring PANYNJ a reliable partner to build the future of JFK the State of New York deserves.”

“Home to one of the busiest airports, in the United States’ largest city, JFK International Airport is part of our nation’s economic engine,” said Mark Fialkowski, president, Mobility Solutions business unit for Parsons. “The new two main loops will simplify roadway operation and create a more travel friendly experience for the more than 62 million passengers who come through JFK each year. We are proud to build on our decades of experience in New York State, partnering with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to continue to move the industry forward and provide exceptional service to the region for decades to come.”

The design-build project consists of the design and construction of the on-airport roadway transportation network which includes roadway reconfiguration, maintenance and protection of traffic, intuitive wayfinding and enhanced traffic technologies, at-grade pavement, retaining walls and bridges as well as utility relocations and upgrades. The project will improve user connectivity and access to the surrounding terminals. Also included, is the design and construction of a modern Ground Transportation Center which features:
