| Project Name: | Terminal 2W Expansion |
| Location: | DFW International Airport, Texas |
| Project Description: |  In
1997, DFW and its tenant airlines committed to constructing additional gates
and terminal support facilities, beginning with extending Terminal 2W. In
order to allow American Airlines to use these new gates efficiently, access
between AA's current operations in Terminals 2E/3E and the new gates in
Terminal 2W would be necessary. Ground vehicles carrying baggage, cargo
and/or passengers would shuttle quickly between the east and west sides.
In order to accomplish this, three bridges and a new baggage road, inside
the airport operations area (AOA), was constructed. |
| Paragon's Role: |  As
Design Consultant, Paragon performed the design of all grading, paving and
utility construction for this project, including horizontal and vertical
control for the location of roadways, bridges, buildings and related facilities;
roadway paving for new ground-level AOA and non-AOA service roads; grading
and drainage; utility coordination (DFW Central Utilities/Maintenance, Lone
Star Gas, TU Electric, GTE Telephone); water and gas line relocation; coordination
of AOA security issues and relocation of AOA fencing and gates; and construction
support services. The scope of services included, but was not limited to,
civil design, structural design, construction administration, scheduling
analysis and traffic control. |
