  • UL-FGA G15 was used as fill around a pier supporting a new pedestrian bridge at Bradley International Airport.  The lightweight fill was needed to minimize downdrag on the deep foundations supporting the pier.

  • The Consolidated Rent-a-Car (ConRAC) Facility at Bradley International Airport (BDL) consolidates all rent-a-car companies on-airport with pedestrian access from the terminal.

  • The two-building structure, located next to the existing parking garage, allows travelers to pick up and drop off rental cars across the street from baggage claims and avoid a ride on a shuttle to a parking lot outside of the airport.

  • The construction of the $210 million facility commenced in October 2019 and ConRAC is expected to be open to the public in May 2022.
