ROANOKE, Va. – UPDATE
The screening equipment has been repaired and is working again.
Transportation Security Administration screening equipment is temporarily down at Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport, according to airport officials.
Wait times are increased at the security checkpoint.
Officials ask travelers to allow for additional travel time for check-in and screening, as TSA officials will have to manually screen baggage.
