Jacobs has been chosen by Boise Airport to support its multi-year capital expansion plan, including the construction of Concourse A, the renovation of Concourse B and potential improvements to other terminal facilities to accommodate an 81% increase in passenger demand over the past decade.
The engineering services specialist will provide professional services tailored to the airport's needs, serving as the owner's representative for the airport and overseeing planning, design and initial operations.
“Keeping up with growth is critical for furthering economic development in this growing region,” said Jacobs senior vice president Eva Wood. “We bring extensive expertise in managing complex infrastructure projects to meet increases in passenger demand, improve the passenger experience and help prepare the state's capital and largest metropolitan area for future growth.”
Boise Airport continues to grow in criticality to the economic development of Idaho – connecting the state's capital with flights to 27 non-stop destinations over the past year. The design phase for the Concourse A Development and Concourse B Renovation projects will begin in 2025.
“We look forward to working with Jacobs on key elements of the BOI Upgrade Program, aimed at right sizing the airport and growing in pace with our community,” said Boise Airport deputy director of engineering Beth Sumner. “We appreciate the experience and expertise Jacobs brings to our programme.”
