SCHINDLER SYSTEMS FOR SLC INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT EXPANSION

Schindler is providing the elevators, escalators and moving walks for a US$3.6-billion expansion of the Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) underway now, SLC Director of Communications & Marketing Nancy Volmer tells ELEVATOR WORLD. CBS station KUTV says construction workers have begun installing 24 escalators in the new terminal building and South Concourse-West areas after SLC held a topping-off ceremony for the new terminal in May 2018. The new terminal is set to open in fall 2020, and is part of a larger overhaul being done in phases through 2024. Architecture firm HOK handled the design, which will aim for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
