Helix Electric Joins $390M SMForward Parking Garage 2

Helix Electric has joined in the construction of a new six-story, 5,500-space parking garage at Sacramento International Airport, located west of Terminal B.

The project, part of the airport’s $1.3 billion SMForward capital improvement program, is on track to open in late 2026 and will significantly expand parking capacity for the region’s fastest-growing airport. Helix serves as the managing electrical contractor on the project, working in coordination with general contractor Otto Construction.

The new garage replaces the existing Hourly B Lot and adds 5,500 close-in parking spaces for passengers and visitors at SMF. The structure features a parking guidance system, electric vehicle charging stations on every level, solar panel readiness and public art integrated into its perforated metal panels.

The Terminal B Parking Garage 2 is one of six projects under the SMForward program subject to the county’s CWTA. Otto Construction, a Sacramento-based, woman-owned firm, serves as the design-build general contractor and previously constructed SMF’s Terminal A parking garage in 2004. The total project budget is $390 million.
