Los Angeles World Airports has begun the process of relocating all nine segments of the Midfield Satellite Concourse South (MSC South) project across the airfield. The MSC South project is being built using a cutting-edge technique called Offsite Construction and Relocation (OCR), which allows for segments of a project to be constructed at a different location before being transported to the final site for installation. Today marked the successful delivery of the third building segment to the project site, which is located south of the West Gates at Tom Bradley International Terminal. As an extension of the West Gates, MSC South will add approximately 150,000 square feet of space and eight gates for narrowbody aircraft. The construction team delivering MSC South under General Contractor W.E. O'Neil Construction is comprised of local workers, with more than 30% representation from Los Angeles' workforce. Because the segments were constructed using the OCR method, contractors were able to include workers who may not have been eligible to perform work on an active airfield. The project includes 374 local hires and 2 HireLAX Apprenticeship Readiness Program graduates. More than 32 percent of total work hours to date have been completed by local workers, surpassing the project’s goal of 30 percent. Thank you to our partners W.E. O'Neil Construction , Woods Bagot , Buro Happold , SME Steel and the entire project team. Read more at lax.to/Rb9g6 .
