Day 3 - 17 March
Session:
Increasing Airport Capacity


12:30 - 12:55 - Development of small/mid-size airports
Synopsis: Once a masterplan is finalised or updated, it is considered to be a guideline for the development of an airport. However, an airport is not growing in all areas simultaneously. Alongside traffic predictions, legal or operational requirements, a conceptual planning in phases for the modification of existing or newly required facilities aims to optimise the utilisation and productivity of a given or complete new infrastructure. When expanding or constructing airport facilities, cost factors almost always require that existing buildings and infrastructure remain in use whenever possible; thus, structured future growth during operation is required.
