Why incorporate an automated people mover in the design?
Airports are most successful when they provide the highest possible level of customer service, such as ease of curbside access, provisions for passenger amenities and passenger walk distance. The distance between the terminal and airside concourse is approximately 1,200 feet plus an additional 600 feet to the farthest gate for a total walk distance of 1,800 feet. The automated people mover will move passengers faster and in comfort, both reducing the walk distance and increasing the level of service.
