Columbus Consolidated Rental Car Facility

TranSystems served as Architect of Record and lead structural engineer on the John Glenn Columbus International Airport Consolidated Rental Car Facility. The facility is part of the airport’s long-range plan for expanding the capacity of the airport to grow from six million to more than ten million annual passengers over the next 25 years. The new ConRAC is located directly across the street from the future terminal and replaces an existing deficient operation with a new 1,000,000 square-foot facility with more than 2,000 vehicles contained within a multi-level ready return garage, quick-turnaround area and idle vehicle storage areas. The ConRAC is the first piece of the future multimodal hub at the airport that will include a new 5,400 space public parking garage, ground transportation center and mixed-use commercial linked to the passenger terminal via an elevated pedestrian skybridge spanning the main entrance road to the airport.
