The "Morgan City TARS Site (US-2463)" in Franklin, US, is not a traditional traveler-facing terminal like an airport or bus station, and therefore, there are no public traveler reviews or experiences available in the manner requested. The site was historically a Tethered Aerostat Radar System (TARS) site, a former federal radar facility used to monitor the southern U.S. border. It was also known as the Glencoe Aerostat Radar Site and had the TARS ID B-90.
The Morgan City TARS site ceased operations sometime before 2013, with official deactivation occurring in early 2004. The aerostat balloons were not operational for several years, and the United States Air Force had no intention of replacing them, leading the FAA to terminate flight restrictions in 2011.
Currently, the site is used as a heliport by a local company, Cane Helicopter Services. As such, there is no public information regarding overall traveler sentiment, terminal facilities, security wait times, customs, or transportation connections in the context of general public travel. The "travelers" at this location would be specific to helicopter operations, and their experiences are not publicly reviewed.
