Traffic Information

  • EUL National Road Traffic Impact Notice

    Site preparation is underway in Area B near AFIT, National Road, and AFRL Facility 620 as part of a 50-year Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) deal for the construction of eight commercial facilities consisting of 43.5 acres over the next ten years.

     

    Beginning mid-September, an entrance will be established on National Road for the construction site. During this time, expect heavy construction equipment entering and exiting the new entrance between the hours of 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. *Note this is not a new entry point for base access.*

     

    This will not affect gate access at 19B; however, motorists should anticipate an increase in traffic during construction hours.
