Scope Of Work
Manhattan to JFK in 36 minutes
The AirTrain automated light rail system links the nine passenger terminals of John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) with the central terminal, rental car area, and parking lots. When designed and built, the AirTrain’s capacity was 34,000 passengers a day, making it the second most heavily used airport access system in the United States at the time.
The AirTrain extends to intermodal transfer stations in Queens that connect to New York City Transit (NYCT) subway and bus systems, and the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR). A trip from midtown Manhattan, which formerly took more than two hours in bad weather or unusually heavy traffic, now takes about 36 minutes.
