Construction Impacts to Expect: January 12 - 18
New year, new-er PDX! In 2026, there will be 30% more of the main terminal to explore, and getting around will feel a whole lot easier. This next phase of construction is opening in stages, so a few familiar routes are about to change. And then change again. We promise it’s all worth it.
- Late January: Goodbye, South Bypass
- Early March: Goodbye, North Bypass
- Mid-April: Hello, new exit lanes
- By June: Hello, new escalators to baggage claim
📍 Take a look at the map above for a quick visual of what’s changing and when.
Impacts: When the B/C bypass closes, the emergency egress stairs in that space will also close. Alternate stairs are near Gate C7 and the Concourse B egress stairs near Gate B3 will remain open. Gate C5 will be out of service during construction and all south side doors adjacent to make-up unit 1/2/3 will be closed.
