GATE ACCESS TO BASE:
NEW GATE PROCEDURES AT QUANTICO GATES. Quantico has enforced a 24/7 ID check. It is required that all personnel and guests are required to provide ID at the main and back gates of Quantico. It currently takes 20 - 30 minutes to get through the gates between 7am - 8am without MDM on base. With the additional traffic generated on base during the Expo,the time to get through all gates will increase significantly. Please plan your time accordingly. The Base recommends arriving before 6:30am or after 8:30amto avoid the majority of the rush.
After Hours:
Please note when the show breaks it will be faster to take Route 1. Although the distance is longer, traffic will be much lighter and will get you off Base faster. Please follow signs to exit the Base via Route 1.
For your information:
Cell phone use while driving in the car and traffic tickets (such as speeding) are Federal offenses on a military base.
