Abstract:

This one-day conference reviewed the outlook for airports in the 21st century. The conference focused on development that is expected to take place at major metropolitan airports to help accommodate growth during the next 25 years. The program considered the major technological and institutional measures that may be combined to increase the capacity of the airport system and to help meet the rising demand for air transportation. Industry experts presented information on the prospects for improved airport infrastructure, aircraft technology, and air traffic control technology in relation to future capacity requirements. The process of planning and undertaking major airport improvement programs was examined from the perspective of regional planning, environmental compatibility, and economic implications. The conference provided practitioners and policymakers with an opportunity to review the changing context of airport development and to discuss changes in areas such as research, planning procedures, and institutional roles and responsibilities in order to meet future requirements. The conference proceedings contain the conference presentations and discussions.
