Airport news: RSW terminal expansion project will impact passenger access to concourses
The "pardon our dust" signs are going up with more frequency at Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) in Fort Myers.
According to a press release from the Lee County Port Authority, as part of the work for the Terminal Expansion Project Phase 1, there will be changes to Concourse C access in the central main terminal.

Starting Wednesday, April 23 at 8 p.m., temporary walls will be installed as part of the construction of a Temporary Checkpoint for Concourse C.
With this area closed, it will prevent passengers from transiting the terminal through the construction zone.
Access to the concourses will only be through the Ticketing Hall.
The East Atrium inside Door 2 is the only access to Concourses B and C.
The West Atrium inside Door 5 will be the only access to Concourse D.
Delta Air Lines and WestJet passengers will need to walk east through the Ticketing Hall toward Door 2 to access Concourse C. If Delta and WestJet passengers do not need to go to the ticket counter to check in, the best route is to enter from Door 2. The East Atrium inside Door 2 is the only access to Concourse C.
Due to these changes, it may take a little extra time to navigate through the terminal to your concourse, especially if you are headed to Concourse C.
Please look for new wayfinding signage posted throughout the terminal.
The Lee County Port Authority will continue to post updates on the airport's website and Facebook to help travelers and airport users become aware of changes due to construction.
