2026 Passenger Boarding Bridge Replacements – Phase 2

The Metropolitan Airports Commission is soliciting bids for the refurbishment and relocation of one passenger boarding bridge along with the installation of a new fixed walkway, associated caissons, and all necessary controls, equipment, accessories, and foundations. The project includes architectural and electrical improvements to support the upgraded infrastructure, as well as the integration of security cameras and boarding door card readers that meet current MAC design standards. Site work involves the complete removal of a jet blast deflector, screen wall, and abandoned footing, along with concrete removal and restoration, installation of aircraft fueling systems and hydrant pits, and new pavement markings. Major infrastructure elements include a new 77-linear-foot fixed walkway, three caissons, 577 square yards of concrete pavement, a full aircraft fueling system, a fixed walkway HVAC unit, a PC Air Unit, a Ground Power Unit, electrical distribution upgrades, and five camera systems. The project is identified under Solicitation 181 titled “2026 Passenger Boarding Bridge Replacements – Phase 2,” with bids due by July 14, 2026, and the solicitation was posted on June 29, 2026. The work is to be performed in Minnesota under the oversight of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, with Chris Roy listed as the primary point of contact. All components must be installed to meet operational and safety requirements, ensuring seamless integration with existing airport systems and compliance with facility design standards. The scope encompasses both structural and systems-level upgrades to enhance passenger flow, safety, and operational efficiency at the facility.
