#CLTairport has officially commissioned the North End Around Taxiway, which enhances connectivity between the west runway and the terminal ramp, boosting both safety and capacity. As a vital part of the Airport's expansion and modernization efforts, the taxiway minimizes aircraft crossings on Runway 18C-36C, enhancing airfield safety and operational efficiency. It also provides additional queuing space for arriving flights, streamlining traffic flow on the central runway.
The project encompassed several enabling initiatives, such as relocating the Airport Overlook, rerouting a one-mile section of Old Dowd Road, permanently closing Marshall Drive and building a new access road next to the Long Term 1 parking lot. Construction began in April 2021.
