After 15 months, construction is finished on Long Beach Airport’s revamped drop-off zone

America’s coolest airport just got easier to visit.

Long Beach Airport’s new pick-up and drop-off zone is officially open after roughly 15 months of construction to expand travel lanes from four to six, extend the pedestrian island in the middle of the six lanes, straighten a portion of the roadway and add a crosswalk, ADA ramps, more signage and handrails.

To celebrate the opening Monday, city officials and politicians rode in on a half dozen Ford Model T vehicles — supplied by the Long Beach Model T Club. They arrived by driving through a banner that read “Travel with ease at America’s Coolest Airport,” the new trademarked slogan for LGB.
