Crews have wrapped up directional drilling along Terminal Drive for the new parking garage and rental car facility that is part of New Horizon.

One tunnel, zero cars, dozens of electrical lines. The 48‑inch drill completed a 125‑foot long underground bore to relocate existing electrical lines, moving about 12 feet each day over an 11‑day period. The completed relocation clears the footprint for the new, bigger, better parking garage and rental car facility at BNA®, coming in the next few years.

This work was done beneath Level 1 Arrivals and Departures to keep passenger traffic flowing smoothly.
