Still, the nation’s third-busiest airport is asking visitors to pardon the dust.  Traffic backups at Southwest Terminal 1 should improve after a construction barricade is removed sometime in  June, said airport spokesman Charles Pannunzio. The barricade on the west end of the terminal is blocking access to the curb for passenger drop-offs, and creating a bottleneck for drivers entering the upper level.  “There’ll be more space between terminals 1 and 2 when they take that out, probably near the end of June,” the spokesman said.  Crews have finished remodeling the west end of the terminal, which Southwest took over from US Airways. Phase two of Southwest Airlines’ $500-million renovation project in Terminal 1 has moved to the eastern side of the terminal.  Construction crews won’t complete the remodeling of the check-in and ticketing areas before late 2017. A pedestrian bridge from parking structure 1 is closed. The east curb area outside the Southwest terminal is blocked by a barricade. Southwest’s terminal is one of several construction projects under way in the airport. Traffic delays are expected because of work to: Parking structures 3 and 4 across from the Bradley International Terminal: The left lane is blocked and expected to last through June, according to an LAX construction update posted on its web site. Alternate route: East Way.  Elevator and stairwell upgrades on the south side of parking structure 4:  Lane 1 adjacent to parking structure 4 on the lower/ arrivals level is closed, and will continue through August. Alternate route: East Way as a shortcut to United Terminal 7 or Center Way to exit the airport and avoid the Bradley Terminal.  “They finished a couple of elevators, but there is still going to be a left lane closed there,” Pannunzio said.  United Airlines’ renovation of Terminals 7 and 8: Work is taking place behind barricades in front of the two terminals. Redevelopment of Terminal 7 has closed a 135-foot section of the passenger drop-off area on the upperlevel for departures Level, which will remain in place through September.  The elevated walkway to parking structure 7 is closed, with access to the parking garbage limited to the street level. The waiting area at Gate 71A is closed during the next several months. United’s baggage service office and baggage carousel 3 are closed and will be replaced.  A few other notable projects, which drivers and travelers out of LAX may encounter, are:   Parking on some levels of parking structure 1 may be restricted while brighter lighting is installed. Terminal 2: Upgrades continue in the ticketing lobby. Barricades have split the airlines’ check-in operations. Baggage carousels on the lower-level for arrivals are being replaced, and go offline one at a time for replacement. The construction is scheduled for completion in 2017. Terminal 6: New concessions have been added and will continue to open this year. Blu2o, Osteria by Fabio Viviani, Starbucks Evenings, The Habit Burger Grill, The Marketplace by Wolfgang Puck, and Wahoo’s Fish Taco are now serving. Travelers for domestic flights should arrive at LAX terminals two hours before their flights begin boarding, according to LAX spokesman Pannuzio. International travelers should arrive at their terminals three hours before their boarding times.  
Rather than time airport arrivals to departure times, he suggests using the boarding times for added protection in case of heavy inbound traffic and to get through ticketing and security.   LAX passengers shouldn’t see significantly longer wait times to get through security checkpoints this summer, Pannunzio said. However, travelers returning to LAX from New York likely will encounter long lines at other airports because of a staffing shortage at the Transportation Safety Administration, according to published reports. TSA is filling more than 300 positions for screeners.  The new agents won’t be hired and trained in time for the busy summer travel season, according to TSA. The agency attributes the shortage of airport security officers to budget cuts and more people flying within the United States.  A TSA spokesman released a statement to The Herald in response to questions about reported delays at airport checkpoints around the country.
