The architectural practice was Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners led by Graham Stirk, Chabanne and Partners, engineers Technip TPS and Cap Ingélec, and Inddigo. The bid was won by the GFC Construction company in partnership with Quille Construction ( Bouygues) and Bouygues Energies & Services. Four groups took part in the tender process to design and develop the expanded Terminal 1. In 2014, Aéroports de Lyon started the construction of a new terminal expansion, which doubled the capacity and the area, with 70,000 m 2. Terminal 1 consists of two parts: The older part is a two-storey, slightly curved, brick shape building which contains the check-in areas 11, 12, 14, 18 and 19 as well as departure areas G and F on the upper level with the arrivals on the ground level. Two of the parks are underground (P2 and P3) while the long-stay parks (P4 and P5) are located at a distance from the terminals behind the railway station. A total of 16,000 car spaces in four car parks (P2-P5) are available. The airport also features two runways as well as cargo facilities. The airport consists of passenger terminals 1 and 2 which are interconnected on the landside by a central building that itself has a foot-bridge to the nearby Gare de Lyon Saint-Exupéry high-speed railway station and the Rhônexpress terminus. Air freight increased by 22.7% to 44,820 tonnes, although overall aircraft movements dropped by 2.8% to 113,420. In 2013, the airport served 8,562,298 passengers, an increase of 1.3% over the previous year. He was a native of Lyon, and a laureate of the Grand Prix du roman de l'Académie française, and died in World War II. The airport was originally named Lyon Satolas Airport, after the nearby eponymous village, but in 2000 the airport and train station were renamed in honour of Lyonnais aviation pioneer and writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, on the centenary of his birth. Since 1997, the airport has been a focus city for the airline Air France. The fan-shaped canopy of the Gare de Lyon Saint-Exupéry, designed by architect Santiago Calatrava, is the airport's most notable architectural feature. In 1994, the LGV Rhône-Alpes high-speed rail line brought TGV service to the airport, providing direct trains to Paris and Marseille. It was designed to replace the old Lyon–Bron Airport, which is now only used for general aviation. The airport was inaugurated by President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing on 12 April 1975, and opened to passengers a week later.
