AUSTIN, Texas – To better serve customers, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Security Screening Checkpoints at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) will undergo changes starting on May 8th that will consolidate TSA PreCheck and CLEAR screening to one Checkpoint. These changes, made in collaboration between TSA, AUS officials and CLEAR, will streamline and simplify the experience for all travelers, regardless of which screening service they use.
Each TSA Checkpoint is designated for the specific screening services listed below, which will go into effect when the Checkpoints first open on the morning of May 8.
Checkpoint 1:
TSA Checkpoint 3 is closed through 2026 for the West Infill and TSA Checkpoint 3 Expansion. The same number of checkpoint lanes are available as before the Checkpoint 3 construction closure. An expanded Checkpoint 3 with 6 – 8 new lanes will open to the public in 2026.
Passengers are encouraged to familiarize themselves with checkpoint locations before their departure using the AUS digital interactive map to ensure a smooth journey through the AUS Barbara Jordan Terminal.
Passengers who are not experienced travelers, have never been to AUS or need accessibility accommodations can book a Passenger Support Specialist to provide them with assistance through the checkpoints. The service must be booked at least 72 hours in advance by completing the TSA Cares form or calling TSA Cares at (855) 787-2227.
PAVIX: Proven Winner for All Airport Concrete Infrastructure
International Chem-Crete Corporation (ICC) manufactures and sells PAVIX, a unique line of crystalline waterproofing products that penetrate into the surface of cured concrete to fill and seal pores and capillary voids, creating a long lasting protective zone within the concrete substrate.
Once concrete is treated, water is prevented from penetrating through this protective zone and causing associated damage, such as freeze-thaw cracking, reinforcing steel corrosion, chloride ion penetration, and ASR related cracking.
This white paper discusses how the PAVIX CCC100 technology works and its applications.
