KBE was the prime subcontractor for the planning and construction of a 1.4 million sf consolidated rental car facility at Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, CT. The new facility includes a 4-story building and garage complex with six rental car agencies. A second 4-story garage provides service areas for the rental agencies, including fuel, vacuuming, window washing, fluid replacement, car washes, and maintenance bays for routine car work. The new facility adds 830 new public parking spots, with more than half of those spaces offering covered parking. The 20-acre site is defined by Airport Terminal Road and Schoephoester Road, two main thoroughfares surrounding the airport. The scope of work included the relocation of the existing toll booth plaza, pedestrian links to the terminals, and associated sitework (excavation, grading, utilities, and roadways).

The project was the site of an OSHA Safety Training Partnership with KBE, an invitation-only safety training alliance that OSHA offers only to firms with exceptional safety records such as KBE’s. KBE has eight completed or current Safety Training Partnerships to date.

Project recognition: Excellence in Construction award from the Connecticut Associated Builders and Contractors and the Top Projects award from the Construction Management Association of America-CT chapter.
