ACRP Report 76 provides a guidebook on how to develop air traffic forecasts in the face of a broad range of uncertainties. It is targeted at airport operators, planners, designers, and other stakeholders involved in planning, managing, and financing of airports, and it provides a systems analysis methodology that augments standard master planning and strategic planning approaches. This methodology includes a set of tools for improving the understanding and application of risk and uncertainty in air traffic forecasts as well as for increasing overall effectiveness of airport planning and decision making.

Preventive Maintenance at General Aviation Airports is published as a two-volume set. Volume 1 is a primer for airport governing- and policy-board members on the importance and value of a preventive maintenance (PM) program. Volume 2 is a guidebook for airport managers, maintenance managers, and all line personnel on how to plan, prioritize, and conduct preventive maintenance for physical infrastructure assets. This Volume 1 Primer begins by discussing the value of airports to communities and the national airspace system. It reviews the various infrastructure assets at airports and outlines the value of planning and prioritizing preventive maintenance into the budgeting process and the impacts to operations if an airport fails to conduct preventive maintenance. It also identifies basic principles for establishing and implementing a preventive maintenance program.

Preventive Maintenance at General Aviation Airports is published as a two-volume set. Volume 1 is a primer for airport governing- and policy-board members on the importance and value of a preventive maintenance (PM) program. Volume 2 is a guidebook for airport managers, maintenance managers, and all line personnel on how to plan, prioritize, and conduct preventive maintenance for physical infrastructure assets. This Volume 2 Guidebook assists airport and maintenance management and all staff responsible for maintenance and repair of the airport’s physical infrastructure assets in understanding preventive maintenance (PM) programs. It includes guidance on conducting PM for typical airport physical infrastructure assets. Volume 2 also contains a CD-ROM that includes system checklists that airport staff can customize for their use, as well as a PowerPoint presentation that can be shown to governing boards or communities on the importance of budgeting for preventive maintenance.

There is information on nearly every subject of concern to the airport industry. Much of it derives from research or from the work of practitioners faced with problems in their day-to-day work. To provide a systematic means for assembling and evaluating such useful information and making it available to the entire airport community, the Airport Cooperative Research Program authorized the Transportation Research Board to undertake a continuing study. This study, ACRP Project A11-03, Synthesis of Information Related to Airport Practices, searches out and synthesizes useful knowledge from all available sources and prepares concise, documented reports on specific topics. Reports from this endeavor constitute an ACRP report series, Synthesis of Airport Practice.

Airport users consist of many types of travelers. Many of those using an airport may never leave the airport terminal(s), passing through the airport when transferring from one flight to another. Others may arrive at or depart from the airport by some model of travel that does not require them to make travel decisions (such as public transit, taxi, or shuttle). Many airline passengers travel in a vehicle (personal, business, or rental vehicle) on the airport roadway network in order to arrive at or depart from the airport. Providing the drivers of these vehicles with the information and guide signing needed to successfully navigate into, through, and out of the airport property presents several unique challenges. Based on discussions with planning personnel at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, providing drivers with information and guide signing was judged to be one of the major challenges facing the airport. In an effort to address the challenges associated with airport roadway guide signing, the Southwest Region University Transportation Center (SWUTC) at Texas A&M University supported a research study to develop a generalized procedure that could be used by airport to assess the effectiveness of the signing at an airport. The procedure was developed and refined through application of the principles to roadway signing at DFW Airport. This report presents the analysis of the roadway signing at the international airport.

Airport administrators, planners, engineers, and researchers often face problems for which information already exists, either in documented form or as undocumented experience and practice. This information may be fragmented, scattered, and unevaluated. As a consequence, full knowledge of what has been learned about a problem may not be brought to bear on its solution. Costly research findings may go unused, valuable experience may be overlooked, and due consideration may not be given to recommended practices for solving or alleviating the problem.

There are more than 4,000 airports in the country, and most of these airports are owned by governments. A 2003 survey conducted by Airports Council International North America concluded that city ownership accounts for 38 percent, followed by regional airports at 25 percent, single county at 17 percent, and multi-jurisdictional at 9 percent. Primary legal services to these airports are, in most cases, provided by municipal, county, and state attorneys. Reports and summaries produced by the ACRP continuing legal studies project and published as ACRP Legal Research Digests are developed to assist attorneys seeking to address the legal problems encountered during airport development and operations. Such substantive areas as eminent domain, environmental concerns, leasing, contracting, security, insurance, civil rights, and tort liability present cutting-edge legal issues for which research is needed. Airport legal research, when conducted through the TRBs legal studies process, is focused on either collecting primary data that usually are not available elsewhere or analyzing existing literature.
