Narrative:
After clearing 28R, we were cleared to gate via taxiway Y, alpha delta 1. While on Y, taxiway a is not clearly marked. So I missed the turn and continued down Y to D1. There are many signs that are not in place that should be at this new midfield terminal. No evasive action or mishap at all, but taxiway Y, I later find out, is restr to commuter aircraft only that far down.
