Team Westover,

We apologize for the inconvenience, however effective Monday, February 24th, the James Street Gate will be closed indefinitely - except on UTA’s when James Street Gate will be open from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday of the UTA. 

We understand this creates some inconveniences for those that live outside or prefer to use the James Street gate Monday through Friday, however we must adjust to ever changing force protection requirements. To best meet those requirements our security forces’ manpower is appropriately aligned to deliver all necessary safeguards to the mission, the installation, our personnel and other assets. 

Thank you,
KAREN L. MAGNUS, Colonel, USAF
Commander, 439th Mission Support Group
