Skanska Partners with FlatironDragados for Major Los Angeles Airport Project
Overview of the Contract
On September 29, 2025, Skanska, in collaboration with FlatironDragados, secured a significant contract with Los Angeles World Airports for the first phase of the Airfield and Terminal Modernization Program (ATMP) Roadway Improvements Project. The total value of this contract is USD 323 million, with Skanska’s share amounting to 55 percent, or USD 178 million (approximately SEK 1.8 billion). This substantial project will be reflected in the US order bookings for Skanska during the third quarter of 2025.
Scope of Work
The scope of this project is extensive and multifaceted. It encompasses various activities aimed at enhancing the airport’s infrastructure. Key components include:
-
Bridge Construction: The project will involve constructing bridges that serve as critical elements within the airport’s roadway system. This entails not just building the superstructure, but also the necessary substructure components to ensure stability and durability.
-
Demolition and Removal: Part of the contract’s scope features the demolition and removal of existing structures that conflict with the new improvements. This is crucial for clearing the way for modern, efficient designs that can better accommodate the rising flow of passenger traffic.
-
Storm Drainage Enhancements: The project will also tackle temporary and permanent storm drain installations. This includes manholes, headwalls, junction structures, and comprehensive utility relocations to ensure that the airport meets safety and environmental standards while improving its operational efficiency.
Timeline for Construction
Construction activities have already commenced, positioning the project for a projected completion by the fourth quarter of 2026. This timeline is ambitious but reflects the commitment of both Skanska and FlatironDragados to enhance the operational capacity of Los Angeles International Airport, a pivotal hub in global air travel.
