March 1, 2026: The commander of U.S. Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) has directed all installations to implement heightened security measures at all entry gates until further notice. These measures include but are not limited to: 100% ID checks, random vehicle inspections, and the suspension of the Trusted Traveler Program until further notice.

Increased traffic is expected when entering and exiting the installation March 11-12 due to an exercise. Please note, the Douglass Gate will be closed from 9 a.m. on March 11 until 9 a.m. on March 12. Please plan accordingly.
