Wilson Gate at Fort Knox now open for limited hours
Visitors and employees heading into Fort Knox now have limited access to an additional gate.
The Wilson Gate is scheduled to reopen for limited weekday hours beginning Tuesday, September 2.
“We’ve done some analysis and garnered some military support from all the commands across Fort Knox, and we now have enough guards trained to reopen Wilson Gate in a limited capacity,” said Fort Knox Garrison Commander Colonel Dave Holstead.
The gate will be open “from 6 to 9 a.m. with one inbound lane and outbound lanes open, and again from 3 to 6 p.m. for outbound-traffic only.”
Holstead said several factors contributed to the closing of the gate.
“Because of the hiring freeze, because we’ve lost a lot of security guards, because of the surge with cadet summer training, we are not able to hire the security guards, and people just don’t know that the Army actually says that Fort Knox should be a one gate post, so they only man us to that level, but we manned two through the summer and we’re now back up to three,” Holstead said.
