Hartsfield-Jackson International airport plans to move Uber and Lyft pickups from the current curbside areas to a different location in mid-July.

Uber and Lyft drivers are currently allowed to pick up passengers anywhere on the curbside, on the upper or lower levels at Terminal South or Terminal North.

"We are working to identify locations for Uber and Lyft to pick up their passengers while we install a canopy on the roadways," said Hartsfield-Jackson spokesman Reese McCranie. "We're not going to have the available curb space for those operations while the canopy installation is occurring. That's why we've got to move them."
