Update on Nashville Airport construction

Beginning today, the temporary two-lane Ring Road will be reduced to a single lane in one stretch through the long-term parking lot to install a utility duct bank across the road. Depending on weather, this lane reduction may continue for up to one week. Ring Road is the one-way road that surrounds Nashville International Airport's short- and long-term parking facilities and offers access to the terminal.

In addition, the entrance and exit to the long-term parking lot will be impacted with upcoming construction.

Nashville International Airport passengers and guests are advised to watch

for construction detour signage, reduce speed, and stay alert for construction workers.

Temporarily, no cell phone/waiting area is available. If waiting for arriving passengers, you may use either the 10-minute waiting area outside the baggage claim area or the short-term parking garage.

The terminal entrance off of Donelson Pike, nearest I-40 and adjacent to the Economy Parking Lot, is temporarily closed. Drivers can still access the Economy Parking Lot from Donelson Pike, but terminal access from that entrance has been closed. NOTE: The main airport entrance off of Donelson Pike, adjacent to the Long-term Parking Lot, remains open

Use Donelson Pike to get into the Nashville Airport

Nashville International Airport (BNA) advises travelers and guests traveling eastbound on I-40 to use Donelson Pike to access the terminal and parking lots as the Terminal Access Roadway Improvements (TARI) Project moves forward. Beginning Monday, November 10, work in the median of the discrete access roadways off of I-40 will begin. These entrances to and from I-40 will remain open at this point; however, BNA encourages customers coming from the west to use Donelson Pike to avoid construction areas.
