PROJECT NAME
Terminal 3 and Terminal 4 Oversize Explosive Detection Systems
LOCATION
Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport
REASON FOR PROJECT
The project will streamline the baggage screening process by removing the manual baggage screening equipment from the passenger ticket lobby in Terminal 3. The project also provides a dedicated baggage screening system for the oversize baggage in Terminal 4 North. Both systems will enable the public terminal space to return to passenger processing and facilitation functions, and will provide a more efficient security screening process for checked baggage in new dedicated facilities and systems out of the public areas.

BENEFIT TO RESIDENTS
The new state-of-the-art technology inline system is continuing to enhance security at the airport. Additionally, the system will enhance the customer experience by allowing the checked baggage to enter the security screening systems at the ticket counter, thus removing the additional step of the passengers bringing their baggage to the screening devices.
