RSW to temporarily shut off water as part of expansion work

WINK News · last updated

Southwest Florida International Airport will undergo a temporary water shutdown as part of the Terminal Expansion Project Phase 1. The main water line to the terminal will be shut off after midnight on Monday for about four hours.

There will be no water in the terminal or concourses, and terminal restrooms will be closed. Airport patrons can use the restrooms at the Rental Car facility, which will remain operational.

Once water is restored early Monday morning, a boil water notice will be issued for the terminal and concourses. No drinking or potable water will be available, including restroom sinks, water refill stations, or drinking fountains. However, terminal restrooms will be open, and hand sanitizers will be provided.

The boil water notice will remain until testing is completed and the Florida Department of Health authorizes everyday use. It is expected to last no more than 48 hours.

The Lee County Port Authority will post updates on the airport’s website and Facebook to inform travelers about construction-related changes.
