Baggage Handling & West Terminal Expansion, Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS)
Project summary :
VPS sought to increase the security and accuracy of its baggage inspection and sorting through a new baggage handling system, which they wanted built into its existing infrastructure. The system we installed is remarkably sophisticated, as it measures, scans, sorts, and if necessary, flags baggage for future inspection. With this project located in the flight line, we had to manage the height of construction vehicles and materials very carefully to not impede airport operations.
