The $7.3-billion capital improvement program at Los Angeles International Airport continues with Tuesday’s groundbreaking of a $508-million Terminal 1 Modernization Program. The renovation is being performed by Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) in partnership with the terminal's only operator, Southwest Airlines.
Construction will be phased by the Irvine office of construction manager Hensel Phelps Construction Co. to minimize impact to the terminal’s operations. Completion is anticipated by spring 2018.
