Landside Accessibility of Airports

  • 942 Accesses

Abstract

Similarly as at their urban and suburban counterparts, planning , design , and implementation of the airport landside access modes and their systems have been carried for the medium- to long-range time horizon respecting the systems’ components such as infrastructure , supporting facilities and equipment, vehicles, and scenarios of their operations under existing and future (expected and unexpected) conditions. The existing, innovative, and completely new technologies in all above-mentioned components have  also been considered. The planning horizon is usually 10–25 years.
