Taxiway U Construction Ramping Up
Taxiway U is starting to take shape. Since construction on the 2,000-foot-long cross-field taxiway kicked into high gear, refurbishment of old buildings and reconfiguration of the Facilities and Services to clear space for the taxiway have taken place. Excavation between Sky Harbor Boulevard and Buckeye Road between Copperhead and 27th Street for a new bridge is visible to airport visitors.
This taxiway will pay dividends to our flying guests: enhanced aircraft flow, streamlined airfield operations, and new jobs.
Additional roadway restrictions for the project will be coming soon. For now, follow the progress by downloading the Taxiway U app from your phone’s app store to receive up to date construction-related information and stay informed about current conditions at Phoenix Sky Harbor: Apple App Store or Google Play.
