ACCESS TO LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - LANDSIDE RESTRAINTS

In examining the problems of access to Los Angeles International Airport, it was necessary to evaluate the freeway system as it exists today and the patterns that it will take in the future. Studies were made as to the total number of passengers that could gain access to the airport via the existing street system. It was determined that the figure of 24 million could be increased to 33 million by increasing surface connections from the north, south and west. Utilizing the figure of 33 million passengers, estimates were made as to how this figure might be increased by the completion of the freeway system to a total capacity of 56 million annual passengers.
