Guelph, Ontario, October 2, 2025 — Kiwi Newton is pleased to confirm our role as Design-Builder for the relocatable parking deck at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. As reported in ABC7’s coverage of DCA’s parking expansion, the airport is adding capacity in phases by installing precast components over a portion of the Economy Lot. The approach brings spaces online faster while meeting all safety and quality requirements.
Our project profile provides additional details about this work and the modular approach. See Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport — Relocatable Parking Deck for an overview of scope, delivery, and system attributes.
What makes the DCA solution different
The deck is built with a relocatable system that supports rapid assembly and minimal disruption to operations. The method aligns with Kiwi Newton’s experience in design-build parking structures where schedule certainty, durability, and lifecycle value are the primary drivers. By pairing factory precision with just-in-time site installation, the Kiwi CarPark System provides owners with a predictable path to capacity, from early planning through commissioning.
A key material choice is ultra-high performance concrete. Our UHPC for parking structures guidance outlines how UHPC improves durability, reduces maintenance, and minimizes jointing. At DCA, the panel and beam approach couples galvanized steel primary members with UHPC deck panels for superior corrosion resistance, rapid set, and clean interfaces that simplify inspection and renewal planning over the life of the structure.
For airports, reliability and staging are critical. Owners and program managers can explore our airport-specific guidance here: airport parking structures. This resource summarizes delivery models, phasing strategies, and lessons learned from active facilities.
Beyond airports
The same modular toolkit applies to campuses and healthcare networks where work windows are tight and patient or student access must be maintained. See our guidance on parking structures for hospitals for considerations specific to clinical environments, including infection control zones, ambulance routing, and shift-change peaks.
