U.S. Soldiers and Airmen with the Pennsylvania National Guard, as well as civilians and community partners, attend a dedication ceremony for the newly constructed main access control point at Fort Indiantown Gap, Nov. 1, 2023. The speakers were Col. Kevin Potts, garrison commander of Fort Indiantown Gap, and Rep. Dan Meuser, representative of Pennsylvania’s 9th Congressional District.
Construction of the main ACP began in December 2021.
Fort Indiantown Gap is consistently one of the busiest National Guard training centers in the country and the access control point project helps ensure a safe and secure environment for the service members who train here and the employees who work here.
After Sept. 11, 2001, the Department of Defense mandated tighter security at military installations, including access control points. Construction of the access control points at Fort Indiantown Gap has been delayed several times.
Once operational, individuals will be required to present a state or federally issued photo ID to access the installation. All other entrances to Fort Indiantown Gap will then be permanently closed to through traffic.
