The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local Union 5 and Lighthouse Electric, a member of the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) are playing a pivotal role in the modernization of the Pittsburgh International Airport, a project that reflects Pittsburgh’s storied industrial heritage and the enduring strength of its past,

present and future. This collaboration between Lighthouse and Local 5 is not just about constructing a new airport terminal; it’s about enhancing the travel experience for millions of passengers while boosting economic development across the region.

Pittsburgh, once known as the “Steel City” due to its industrial past, has evolved into a hub of technology and innovation. The airport modernization project is a testament to this transformation. The new Pittsburgh International Airport is designed to serve as an origination and destination airport, meeting the needs of today’s travelers. The project includes the construction of a new 800,000-square-foot terminal, a parking garage, a roadway network, and other facilities that integrate modern technologies and advancements in aviation and security.

The collaboration between NECA Contractor Lighthouse Electric and IBEW Local Union 5 was crucial to the success of this project. Together, they bring a deep reservoir of skilled labor and technical expertise, ensuring that the new terminal is built to the highest standards. The project is a massive coordination effort, with complex systems like the baggage handling system and advanced security measures that require precise integration. The NECA/IBEW Team have worked tirelessly to ensure the seamless execution of the project, even resolving over a million potential conflicts in the design and installation. 

As the new Pittsburgh International Airport takes shape, it stands as a symbol of what can be achieved when labor and management work hand in hand to create something truly transformative for the community.
