LAX West Intermodal Transportation Facility

The LAX West Intermodal Transportation Facility (also known as the West ITF or the LAX Economy Parking facility) is a large parking structure with a park and ride area and access to the LAX City Bus Center and nearby hotels.

The four-story, 1700000 sqft facility cost US$294.1 million to build and opened on October 19, 2021.

History
Construction on the West ITF began in summer of 2019 with a groundbreaking on July 11, 2019.

The West ITF opened to the public on October 19, 2021, and will temporarily use buses to transport customers between the airport and the facility.

In 2022, Los Angeles World Airports' Security & Badging Office moved into a 26000 sqft space on the ground floor. By moving to a centralized location, employees are able to utilize public transportation and the APM train system to take care of their badging needs, helping reduce traffic congestion on local streets.

Hours and frequency
The APM is expected to operate 24 hours a day. During peak hours (9 a.m. to 11 p.m.) trains will arrive every two minutes.
