GRB SECURITY CHECK IN UPDATE:

Starting Monday, the Polk blue container will be closed due to the construction happening on the south ramp. TriCorps security will be checking labor in behind Hall E on Chartres Street. Please see attached photos of outside the gate. This is temporary while we do not have access to the Polk entry for no more than two weeks starting on Monday.

To access the gate, walk North from the corner of Chartres and Polk, past the first gate and access the check in area at the second gate. Please allow some extra time to arrive and get checked in by the TriCorps security team. The check in procedure is the same, please bring a valid Drivers license to check in. If you have any issues with security please do not engage, get their name and report it to your Union Rep so it can be addressed with the facility. Thank you for your patience with the changes as construction begins to the convention center.
