The Automated People Mover Project (APM) is an electric train system on a 2.25-mile elevated guideway within the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
APM broke ground in March of 2019 and anticipates that the system will be operational in 2023.
The APM will operate and maintain all trains, elevators, escalators and moving sidewalks providing quick access to the terminals and stations to all passengers for the 25 years of the contract Term (30 years if the construction period is considered)In addition to reducing traffic, the APM will leverage cutting-edge sustainability practices to reduce the airport area’s carbon footprint.
The system’s fleet will consist of 44 cars that are fully electric, 98% recyclable and generate a portion of their own power through regenerative braking, while providing an industry-leading ride quality for users.
The command center and maintenance facility generates nearly half of its power from solar energy and is designed to be LEED Gold Certified.The APM is a historic investment in Los Angeles’ emerging businesses and workforce.
More than $585 million has been identified for local, small or disabled veteran-owned businesses, with an $85 million commitment exclusively to local, small businesses right here in Los Angeles.
The project will create more than 2,000 construction jobs, with 30% of those opportunities being reserved for residents of Los Angeles as well as highly impacted communities near LAX.
