Immediately east of the intersection, Airport Loop crosses at-grade MTA Maryland's Baltimore Light RailLink.

The loop passes to the south of the BWI Business District station, whose kiss-and-ride and park-and-ride facilities can be accessed via Elkridge Landing Road at the next intersection.

The next intersection features Ferndale Road heading east and the entrance to BWI Airport's general aviation facility.

Airport Loop passes the offices of the Maryland Aviation Administration before reaching Cromwell Drive, which serves an industrial park and leads to ramps to and from southbound I-97.

[1][2] Airport Loop heads north as a four-lane undivided highway paralleled by the BWI Trail on the east and the Amtrak's Northeast Corridor to the west through the trees.

The loop intersects Stoney Run Road, which provides access to multiple rental car facilities and a business park.

Also constructed by MDSHA and designed for area commuters, the first 4.4-mile (7.1 km) section of the trail opened in July 1994 and the main loop was eventually completed in 1999.

Described as a "linear park" circling BWI airport, the trail is believed to be the only one of its type in the entire United States.
