West Ramp Dual Taxi Lanes (Design)

The West Ramp Dual Taxi lanes project at Charlotte Douglas International Airport will provide for the design and construction of dual taxi lanes on the west ramp between taxiways E14 and E15 and includes the realignment of gates on old Concourse A to accommodate future fleet mixes.  The following scope is based on planning level analysis and will need to be confirmed through the design.  The current taxi lane configuration lacks sufficient bidirectional flow and consists of a single parallel Group V taxi lane supporting each runway and a single Group III taxi lane around the perimeter of the existing terminal apron

South Ramp Expansion (Design)

The South Ramp Expansion is proposed to improve the aircraft circulation on the east and west sides of the airfield.  In addition, the South Ramp Expansion will facilitate the proposed extensions to Concourse B and Concourse C, and ultimately the development of a satellite concourse.

The following work elements are included in the project:

  • South Ramp Expansion, including construction of new connector taxiways to Taxiway C
  • Civil sitework to facilitate the expansion of Concourse B and C.
  • Tunnel infrastructure (shell only) to serve the future Concourse B and C expansions, and ultimately the development of a satellite concourse.

The selected Final Design Engineer or Engineer of Record (EOR or Consultant) will produce construction documents to be issued for competitive bidding of one or multiple construction packages, followed by conformed or released for construction plans issued to the responsive or responsible bidder for construction.  The design and documents are to be based on preliminary design or bridging documents prepared by the Owner’s Master Civil Engineer (Aviation Consulting Engineers, LLC, or ACE).  The preliminary design effort will include completion of the design geotechnical subsurface investigation, preliminary design plans to a 30% level of completion, pavement design, and preliminary surveys.  Final design surveys, including pavement tie-ins, etc. will be the responsibility of the Consultant.
