Garage
and Customer Service Building
Construction begins Fall 2004.
Expected completion in Spring 2007.
The proposed design-build, seven-level 6,000-space garage
is a post-tensioned concrete structure with precise
architectural elements. Included in the garage construction
are communications, fire alarm and safety systems along
with surveillance equipment, revenue control systems
and an automatic vehicle identification management system.
The first two garage floors will serve as the permanent
consolidated rental car facility. Public parking will
be located on the upper floors. There will also be an
adjoining 60,000 sq. ft. Port of Oakland/Oakland International
Airport commercial-administrative office building. A
two-story rental car quick-turnaround area will also
be built behind the parking structure. The number of
tollbooths will increase from six to 18, along with
associated queuing areas.
Future plans include construction of a pedestrian bridge
to connect the garage and the adjoining BART connector
to the main terminal.
