#Atlanta #Georgia #Airport
Great job to not only the engineers but the men and women who are doing the hands-on construction to that site.
I was in the airport last night flying home and never would have known.....Awesome job with the diversity represented on the project!
Really? Even a year ago they had loads of construction lol
The Atlanta International Airport is by far the most exciting place in Atlanta. I really feel the international buzz and the energy of the city when I am there. It's my favorite airport.
ny by way of ga!
@@thirdiii94 me too!
@@thirdiii94 what part of ga are you from ?
@@miospio old fourth ward!
@@miospio angier & glen iris for me. what about you?
OMG i flew too ATL last week for the first time ever and had no idea this was happening…The train plane they have already is nice I must say. ATl airport is like a city within its own
Kudos to the crane operators!!!
Those are some amazing lattice girders and SEM/NATM mining!
I still remember going to this airport back in 2019-2020. We rode the train thru to the terminals and rode the escalator floor. Glad they are re-constructing for improvement
Thank you for all you do.
Yesssss. More trains were needed
Amazing engineering job. But I think that’s a lot of work just to add 2000 more daily capacity to the trains.
Government funded project
2000 per hour. Pay attention.
Good hiding spot
💪🏾 now they own the company…… yes ATL
Great job yall!
WOW!
Great work going on down there, I've seen it myself. Being an airline employee at Hartsfield, I've had the opportunity to go "down under" and check out the new renovations. I still think the 10,000 to 12,000 people per hour in 2024 is grossly underestimated. Cool stuff though.
@TheZone 2024.
@TheZone Short answer, money! City, state, or government projects never wrap on schedule because why should they, contractors would only short themselves if they were to stay on schedule. Same for DOT projects on the hwy. Ever notice how they take seemingly 3 times as long to complete even simple projects. lol My brother actually works for the hwy department so I kinda stole some of this info from him.
@TheZone Unfortunately, that's all any of the contractors will tell me. And I've chatted with a few. It's usually the guys controlling the majority of the money they know the most about the timeline...so yeah, like any other project in that regards.
How busy?
😲" AMAZING!.... But am I the only one concerned about that shared tunnel entrance @1:41 foreshadowing a potential future underground Train collision? "
Bruh ever heard of control systems and track interchanges😂
Amazing! This type of train should be all over the country
Or at least all over Atlanta....
Atlanta needs a reliever airport!!
Delta has lobbyists in the Georgia State Capitol that wouldn’t allow it because it would bring competition into the Atlanta market. But either way, even with the massive amount of passengers, the current airport is efficient in handling it.
@@BabyBang17datruth Yup. The city signed an agreement with Delta that it would not build a competing airport
No they don't. ATL is designed to handle the volume it does and does a great job at it.
@@johniii8147Ohok That’s what’s up!
I love flying airplanes in and out of there!
@@johniii8147 Most of my delays in ATL have been because the plane was late coming in from somewhere else. As much as ATL gets ribbed for delays it's remarkably efficient given the sheer volume of traffic it sees.
