BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Work continues on the extension to Concourse A at BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport.

Key components of the facility are now constrained, including the baggage handling system.

Last year was the fourth-straight record year for passenger traffic at BWI with more than 27.1 million total passengers.
