(New York Super Airport 1: Skyscraper Terminals) Věda Costing over 8 billion dollars, the new LaGuardia Airport will be one of the biggest American infrastructure projects of recent times. More than 8000 men and women will work together to transform the airport into a modern, 21st century ‘superhub. Over the next three years of construction, they will create more than double the amount of available space for aircraft, and massively boost passenger capacity. The catch? They must keep the existing airport 100% operational while they build the new one around it. Can they prevent this airport from descending into chaos and delays? LaGuardia Airport is hemmed in by river and roads, so designers must push the limits of a tight site by building as tall as possible. This means a vast 120-foot-long escalator is needed to move passengers between floors. But the install hangs precariously in the balance. Below ground the team battles to prevent devastating floods, while above, they build a world-first; twin 450-foot-long pedestrian bridges that allow aircraft to pass beneath. MP (United Kingdom)
