Gatwick Airport Upgrades

TSA Riley brought invaluable expertise a construction design and management advisor for a range of critical infrastructure projects at Gatwick Airport. With a focus on enhancing functionality and resilience, TSA Riley helped to ensure ensuring smooth airport operations and improved facilities.

Our involvement spanned various projects, each with its unique challenges and objectives. Some projects were situated in bustling customer-facing areas within terminals, while others involved building management projects conducted away from public access.

One such initiative was the Explosive Detection System Upgrade. This programme included 13 interconnected projects aimed at replacing outdated hold baggage screening machines with advanced models, bolstering airport security and aligning with evolving safety standards.

In addition to security enhancements, TSA Riley spearheaded efforts to enhance the airport’s mechanical and electrical infrastructure. This included the decentralisation of Gatwick Airport’s central boiler system, which had reached the end of its operational life. This ambitious project sought to improve resilience and functionality throughout the airport by upgrading plant rooms, gas mains, electrical distribution systems, and HVAC infrastructure.

By ensuring reliable infrastructure and streamlined processes, TSA Riley aimed to create a safer, more efficient, and more enjoyable environment for passengers and staff alike.
