Overview

Summary

The St. Pete – Clearwater International Airport (“PIE” or “Airport”) is proposing to construct a structured parking garage in the existing Strawberry Pie Lot. The parking garage program will consist of an approximate 1,300 space pre-cast parking garage, 500 space surface parking lot, intersection reconstruction, and other elements needed to support the parking operation.

The goals of the project include:

• Increase Parking Capacity: Construct a four-level parking structure in the Strawberry Pie Lot to increase the number of available stalls. This expansion aims to establish this lot as the primary economy parking option at the Airport.

• Enhance Shuttle Service: Implement a dedicated priority route for the shuttle service to ensure reduced headways and enhanced reliability. This improvement is focused on minimizing wait times, thereby improving the overall customer experience and ensuring timely transportation between the terminal and parking facility.

• Upgrade Intersection: Reconstruct the intersection at the Roosevelt Boulevard slip ramp and Fairchild Drive to boost the capacity of left-turning vehicles heading to the Strawberry Pie Lot entry plaza. This will be the main access route for economy parking.

• Optimize Costs: Maximize the increase in parking capacity while adhering to the Airport’s established project budget. This will involve minimizing additional amenities that do not directly contribute to the core objective of increasing parking spaces.

• Cater to Airport Clientele with User-Friendly Design: Design and develop a parking facility specifically tailored to the needs of airport clientele. It is crucial to ensure that the design is intuitive and approachable. This includes clear signage, easy navigation, accessible information points, and convenient access points. These features will cater to the diverse and transient nature of airport users, providing a seamless and stress-free parking experience for both regular and first-time visitors.

Background

Due to the continued growth of commercial aircraft operations at the airport over the past ten years, the airport has maximized the surface parking areas available. A parking garage has been determined to be the most feasible approach to keep up with the current parking demands. Several parking studies have been performed indicating that a vertical solution is the most logical approach to meet current and future parking needs.
