TRAVEL ALERT: Evening lane closures on Terminal Drive beginning tonight

Press release from the Asheville Regional Airport:

Travelers are being advised that three lanes of Terminal Drive will be closed during overnight hours from approximately 8pm until 4:30am two nights this week. The closures are planned to occur tonight, February 5 and tomorrow, February 6, and are necessary so demolition of the northern curbside canopy can take place.
The overnight work should not cause significant impact to travelers; however, those utilizing Terminal Drive after 8pm on these dates should be aware and plan for potential congestion. The outer lane of Terminal Drive will remain open for vehicular traffic. Barricades and fencing will be installed to delineate the lane closures and work area, and flaggers will be present at both ends of the closure to assist as needed.
The demolition is another step in the airport’s historic AVL Forward project that will result in a completely new airport passenger terminal for western North Carolina. To learn more about the project, visit www.flyavl.com/AVLForward.
