www.Parctel.com: With increasing numbers of passengers arriving at the airport’s front door, the upper roadway is experiencing more and more congestion. In a move to ease the situation and improve the flow of traffic, airport officials made a change in where commercial vehicles deliver passengers.
Dawn Huddleston, commercial roadway manager with the Port of Portland, said, “You may have noticed a change that took place last month that is helping alleviate a crowded lane at the departure level curbside. All our commercial vehicles – taxis, airport shuttles, limousines, hotel shuttles, buses – are now using the outer lanes on the upper level, much as they do on the lower roadway. It’s made a significant improvement to the traffic flow.”

Until last month, commercial vehicles using the upper roadway could use any lane they wished to deliver their passengers. Now, the closest lane to the terminal is for customers’ personal cars – for active loading and unloading only, of course.
