Project Overview

LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (LAX), Consolidated rent-a-car (Conrac) Facility, Los Angeles, California

The Consolidated Rent-A-Car (ConRAC) facility is consolidating rental car operations spread across the surrounding area of LAX into one facility conveniently located adjacent to the 405 freeway. The approximately 6.4-million-square-foot facility was built in an area bordered by Aviation Blvd. on the west, Arbor Vitae St. to the north, La Cienega Blvd. on the east and the new 98th Street extension to the south. The facility is connected to the Automated People Mover (APM) and will house more than 18,000 rental car vehicles including ready/return, idle storage and employee parking spaces as well as a Quick Turn Around (QTA) building that allow for car washing, fueling and light maintenance.

Once the new building officially opens to the public, rental car shuttles will no longer be needed to access the LAX Central Terminal Area (CTA) as all customers will ride the APM train to get to their rental car company. With the removal of rental car shuttles, LAX will see a reduction in vehicle traffic and passengers waiting to board curbside at the airport.

The ConRAC was built using a Private-Public Partnership (P3) contracting model. LA Gateway Partners was responsible for designing, constructing and financing the project and will also be responsible for operating and maintaining it for a 24-year period.
