CLEVELAND, OH — Jacobs has been selected to lead program and construction management services for phase one of a $1.6 billion modernization of Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE).
The program, CLEvolution, is designed to reimagine the airport experience for millions of travelers by modernizing aging infrastructure, enhancing accessibility and passenger flow at Ohio’s most traveled airport.
“CLEvolution is a powerful statement of Cleveland’s ambition to transform and revolutionize the travel experience for residents and visitors," Jacobs Executive Vice President Katus Watson said. "Jacobs brings deep experience to 25 of the busiest U.S. airports. With smarter design, expanded amenities, and a seamless flow, we’re helping deliver an airport experience that matches the pride and hospitality of the city itself and transforms the passenger journey from curb to gate.”
The program’s first phase will deliver:
- A redesigned terminal entrance inspired by Lake Erie’s waves, expanded curbside drop-off, and a spacious check-in lobby
- A consolidated TSA checkpoint and new international arrivals area
- A new ground transportation center and upgraded train station
- Expanded parking with a 6,000-space multi-level garage
