Drivers heading to El Paso International Airport should brace for some delays as Terminal Drive gets a facelift starting this Monday, September 30. The repaving work, taking place both during the day and night, is expected to stretch over six weeks, assuming all goes according to plan. The city's travel advisory notes, despite the construction, the airport will remain accessible, although with some restrictions.
Travelers can anticipate a squeeze in traffic flow as Terminal Drive will be pared down to one lane in the work zones. The El Paso International Airport has put in place clear signage to guide motorists. They are strongly advised to heed the detours and exercise increased caution, particularly in areas buzzing with both workers and travelers. "Traffic will be limited to one lane during the work period," as obtained by the City of Elpaso.
For those flying out, a word to the wise, plan. The airport suggests arriving early to buffer against potential hold-ups caused by the repaving project. With construction activities happening around the clock, timing is likely to be unpredictable, and last-minute dashes to the gate could become more complicated. The airport has expressed a commitment to ensuring minimal disruption, but the unpredictable nature of such work means surprises could crop up.
