From Landside…
Landside operations, including terminal, rental car and ride-share facilities, access roads, parking structures, and public transportation interfaces, are essential for creating a positive passenger experience and ensuring seamless connectivity.
Our services encompass the design of functional and aesthetically pleasing terminal buildings, optimized traffic circulation patterns, efficient parking solutions, and integrated public transportation systems that help airports enhance operational efficiency, maximize passenger convenience, and create a safe and sustainable landside environment.
Our commitment to innovation and collaboration ensures that our solutions align with the unique requirements and long-term goals of each airport, fostering seamless integration between landside and airside operations.
… to Airside
Our team provides specialized expertise in the design, construction and maintenance of airside facilities.
From runway and taxiway design to apron and parking layout planning, we integrate advanced technologies, rigorous analysis, and industry best practices to deliver innovative and sustainable solutions that will serve your needs for years to come.
With an emphasis on safety and compliance with regulatory standards, our airside services ensure the seamless coordination of aircraft movements, ground operations and airside construction traffic, facilitating reliable and efficient airport operations.
Setting the Stage for Long-Term Operational Success
Evaluate Operations
Our team will evaluate your airport operations and facilities to identify future needs and potential problems.
Fuel Informed Decision Making
We can help identify project goals and anticipate challenges, enabling you to make informed decisions.
Analyze Costs
Our life-cycle-cost-analyses can yield cost-efficient alternatives that offer the best long-term solutions.
Environmental Responsibility
NEPA plays a critical role in ensuring that projects are conducted in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner. With decades of experience and environmental experts on staff, Benesch is able to conduct thorough Environmental Assessments (EA) that evaluate potential impacts, such as noise, air quality, wildlife habitat, and cultural resources.
This experience enables us to approach airport projects with a comprehensive understanding of environmental considerations, regulatory requirements and stakeholder engagement. This expertise not only ensures compliance but also contributes to our ability to deliver successful projects that balance environmental concerns with the functional and operational needs of your airport.
AI-Powered Pavement Maintenance
Leveraging a partnership with Bentley Systems, Benesch experts are revolutionizing how we utilize digital technologies to streamline crack detection processes on runway pavement.
A Digital Twin model is created via drone imagery and then fed through Pavement Crack Detector software to identify and analyze cracks. Powered by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, the new technology improves efficiency and accuracy of data collection activities while reducing inspectors’ exposure to environmental hazards and interruptions to area traffic.
The AI/ML Driven Pavement Crack Detector workflow received Bentley’s Founders’ Honors as part their global 2023 Going Digital Awards in Infrastructure.
