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.
Here’s the quick rundown:
- Late January: Goodbye, South Bypass
- Early March: Goodbye, North Bypass
- Mid-April: Hello, new exit lanes
- By June: Hello, new escalators to baggage claim
Temporary signs and extra staff will be there to help travelers keep moving. You don’t need to know every detail. Just know where to point people next.
