Redstone Arsenal Announces Changes to Gate 3 Operations

Redstone Arsenal, Ala. August 27, 2025 — Redstone Arsenal will implement temporary changes to the operational hours of Gate 3 on Redstone Road in south Huntsville, effective Sept. 2, 2025. The gate will close at 1 p.m. daily to accommodate reductions in resources and manning.

This adjustment will not affect inbound traffic during peak morning hours of 5:30 a.m. to 9 a.m.

Col. Erin Eike, Redstone Arsenal Garrison commander, commented on the changes:

Federal workforce reduction efforts reduced our Security Guard Force by 17% which means at our new authorization strength, we can have no more than three guards out sick, injured or on leave or we would have to close lanes or a gate.

We were able to delay this by paying excessive overtime but that has come to an end. Federal government cost reduction decisions made at the highest levels of government removed overtime as an option. We have temporary assistance from select active-duty partners but that is still not sufficient to maintain the current level of service.

We’re facing significant challenges due to workforce reductions and hiring freeze across the federal government and we are adjusting to the new reality established, while making every effort to ensure secure access to the installation for our workforce.”

The community is encouraged to stay informed about any updates through the garrison’s official social media channels and the My Army Post App.

For more information or inquiries regarding these changes, please call the Redstone Arsenal Public Affairs Office at (256) 876-4161or email us at: usarmy.redstone.imcom.list.garrison-pao@army.mil
