Arup Tapped to Oversee Next Phase of Newark Airport Revamp
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has selected Arup to oversee an ambitious vision plan for future development of Newark Liberty International Airport, in partnership with architecture firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM).
The master planner will develop a comprehensive development strategy and blueprint to accommodate future growth and demand, improve the travel experience and identify opportunities for enhancing the sustainability and resiliency of the facility.
“The Port Authority is driving a $30-billion investment in transforming the region’s airports into a network of modern, world-class gateways,” said Port Authority executive director Rick Cotton. “The vision plan for Newark will guide its transformation into a 21st century best-in-class global hub, and the selection of these two world-renowned firms will help us advance that vision.”
Arup and SOM will be analyzing the airport’s existing capacity and providing a comprehensive framework to accommodate expected passenger and cargo growth through 2065.
