Jackson Hole Airport’s existing back-of-house rental car operations facilities were poorly organized, outdated, and no longer met contemporary sustainability standards. To better handle these functions at the nation’s only airport situated within a National Park, a new Quick Turn-Around (QTA) Facility was developed. The QTA is located on the south edge of the airport; its orientation derived from the existing east access road and the west row of buildings and hangars. Overall site planning and space program information was provided by the Jackson Hole Airport based on existing constraints, increasing demand, as well as future phasing and growth of airport development. The new facility provides a simple, site sensitive yet bold solution. At peak operation, each rental company can run approximately 200 cars through the facility per day.
