MONTREAL, March 18,
2022 /CNW Telbec/ - SNC-Lavalin (TSX: SNC), a fully
integrated professional services and project management company
with offices around the world, announces that construction has
resumed on the Southwest Florida
International Airport (RSW) Terminal Expansion Project. SNC-Lavalin
was awarded a five-year master services contract in 2016 to provide
professional services associated with the $331 million terminal expansion project for the
Lee County Port Authority. Due to a delay, the contract has been
extended to 2025 and the value for SNC-Lavalin is at just over
$26 million for support that now
includes both design and construction administration services.
"For more than fifty years SNC-Lavalin has provided world-class
engineering, innovative solutions and standard-setting strategies
that make air travel safer, easier and faster than ever before,"
said Ian L. Edwards, SNC-Lavalin
President and CEO. "We look forward to providing the solutions and
support to help modernize travel infrastructure and increase the
aviation industry's global competitiveness."
Plans for the RSW Terminal Expansion Project include remodeling
more than 164,000 square feet of space and adding 117,000 square
feet to consolidate the Transportation Security Administration
checkpoints into a 16-lane centralized configuration. The remodel
will allow expansion to 18 lanes and includes new walkways to
connect the terminal's three concourses, additional seating and
other passenger amenities, additional concession space and a
business lounge.
"RSW had record-breaking traffic through the end of 2021 and has
exceeded pre-COVID passenger traffic levels. The Terminal Expansion
Project is an important element in accommodating the significant
increase in visitors to the region," said George Nash, CEO, Atkins
North America. "Since 2016 we've been a part of this project
and look forward to continuing to bring our services and expertise
to RSW."
