EDIT: Looks like there is some road resurfacing and that the airport authority is issuing this advisory. Info
This construction should have minimal impact as to arrival into the airport. All parking can be accessed well before the resurfacing project.

And if you try 60, plan on missing your flight at this point in time.

Although with the long waits, you do have time to enjoy a XL coffee prior to security!!
