MRY METAMORPHOSIS 🦋: It's windows for the win as construction crews button up our replacement passenger terminal for the rain and windy weather ahead.

Also exciting about the windows' install is what they mean for those traveling and working in our net-zero-energy ready building:

- Expansive glass walls and an open-air, windowed observation deck providing natural light and direct views of the airfield

- Clerestory windows to pull natural sunlight deep into the terminal while minimizing the need for artificial lighting

- High-performance glazing combined with exterior shading to limit solar heating and interior glare

MRY METAMORPHOSIS 🦋: Starting Monday, October 19, our roadway project is shifting gears with a temporary lane shift to continue constructing the roundabout. Here's what motorists and pedestrians need to know:

🚧 Vehicle lanes on Olmsted Road leading to and from the passenger terminal area will shift toward the Long-Term Parking Lot entrance and exit. Motorists traveling to and from Garden Road will also use this routing.

🚧 A pedestrian accessible path between Garden Road and Olmsted Road will be provided adjacent to the roundabout.

🚧 Slow down, move defensively, stay alert, and use caution in the cone zone.

🚧 Comply with flagger personnel regulating and directing traffic and pedestrians, and roadway signage and markings.

Travelers should plan to arrive to MRY at least 90 minutes before flight departure time for on-time boarding.
