UPS building new sorting facility at TPA


A new 3,716 sqm cargo building is going up near the Pemco World Air Services hangar on North Westshore Boulevard. It is part of a wide-ranging project that includes taxiway, apron and roadway improvements and a new City of Tampa pump station.

 

The Aviation Authority-owned building to be leased by UPS will be a purpose-built sorting facility for next day air package deliveries for the west coast of Florida. When completed, it will have the capacity to sort up to 7,500 packages per hour.

 

The UPS complex is being built by design-build team Middlesex/Aecom and will feature an employee parking lot, truck courts and trailer parking. UPS currently uses an air cargo building north of the Main Terminal and loads aircraft on the hardstand west of the Tampa Airport Marriott.

 

That space is the site of the future Airside D, which is scheduled to start construction in 2024 and be in operation by early 2028. (cj)
