JFK Redevelopment construction impacts
Due to construction underway for the $19 billion redevelopment of JFK, motorists and anyone using for-hire vehicle services should plan ahead for delays or reroutes due to detours or closures of parts of the airport roadway network. Customers are strongly advised to use mass transit to and from the airport, such as MTA New York City Transit subway or buses, or MTA Long Island Rail Road — with 20-minute trains from Grand Central Terminal or Penn Station to the AirTrain JFK station at Jamaica.
To avoid potential construction-related vehicular congestion at terminal frontages, motorists are encouraged to use the free drop-off and pick-up lot at the on-airport AirTrain JFK’s Lefferts Blvd station where passengers can easily connect to the free AirTrain for an eight-minute ride to airport terminals.
