Following

a successful mock trial of the vehicle checkpoints this afternoon, Hartsfield

is advising passengers to add one hour to their arrival time.

Passengers

will continue to have direct roadway access to Hartsfield Park-Ride lots,

as entrances to these lots are located before the vehicle checkpoints.

Travelers are encouraged to use the convenient Airport Park-Ride service

that provides a free shuttle bus to quickly pick up passengers from their

vehicles and take them to the curb.

Vehicle inspection

checkpoints will be established on both the north and south terminal prior

to economy and short-term parking entrances. Two lanes of traffic will

be restricted to the main terminal building to allow for the vehicle inspections.

During peak

periods when roads may become congested at Hartsfield the Georgia Department

of Transportation will alert passengers using interstate highway overhead

signage. On an average day approximately 60-thousand vehicles use access

roads at Hartsfield.
