Traffic on Wednesday, 9/24, and Early Morning Thursday, 9/25
A road construction project, needed to bring Link light rail to Sea-Tac Airport in 2009, will cause significant detours and closures beginning on Wednesday morning, 9/24, at 12:01 a.m. and running through 7 a.m. on Thursday, 9/25. If you are planning on coming to the airport during this time, it's important to allow extra time for traffic delays and, if driving, to pay close attention to detour signs.
All of the following will be affected:
Lower Airport Drive (Baggage claim/arrivals level). Access to the
Lower Drive
will be reduced to one rerouted lane. The detour route will be clearly marked.
North Entrance to the Airport Parking Garage. The north entrance to the garage will be closed and parkers rerouted to the south garage entrance. Drivers coming to Sea-Tac from the north will be detoured from SR 518 to south I-99 and the south garage entrance. Traffic leaving the garage will not be affected and will exit to the north as always at S. 182 Street.
Cell Phone
Lot. Traffic heading from the Cell Phone Waiting Lot Cell Phone Waiting Lot to the terminal will follow a detour route at S. 182 Street.
Public Transportation. All public transportation buses (Metro Transit, Sound Transit, Pierce Transit) will both pick up and drop off passengers on I- 99. Public transit buses will not have access to the
Lower Drive
during this period.
This planned construction project is subject to weather conditions.
The exit and entrance to the Rental Car area will not be affected by these changes. It is expected that all traffic at the airport, even on unchanged routes, will be slowed by these detours and closures. Please allow extra time, drive slowly and cautiously, and pay close attention to highway message signage.
