The More Things Change…
Ancient Trade Routes: Amber, Silk, Gold, Salt,
Frankincense Inter-Modal passenger &
freight movement ACCESS to goods and new
markets BUSINESS TRIPS for sales &
procurement TOURISM to visit new places

Critical Understanding
The difference between measuring the economic benefit of an airport and the role of an airport in a local/regional economy Uniqueness of communities/regions, airport facility &
role, business mix, and projects

Economic Development Benefits Generated From Transportation

$ Passenger Time Value (business)
$ Travel Expense (business)
$ Freight Shipper Productivity
$ Indirect (Downstream) Productivity$ Location Income Attraction
• Economic Development Perspective: Improving Access and Connections Facilitating access to new jobs, access to new business
markets, products & services

Who Cares?
City, county and state legislators and regulators who want to know ROI or are unaware of the economic contributions made by airports
Local economic development officials and other transportation agencies
The general public who are voters Neighbors who object to operations and
expansion plans

Reporting Impacts
Avoid (or at least define) Jargon No One Understands & Use English
8
These effects can also be reported together as “multiplier impacts”, “spinoffs” or “ripple effects”
Jargon Reasonable Translation/ clarification
Direct Include type of impact (e.g., on-airport)
Indirect Goods and Services sold by local suppliers to support initial economic activity
Induced Spending of wages earned by workers
Output Business sales, or economic activity

Air Freight in Economic Development
Increase of air freight, just-in-time delivery, overnight courier
Expanding air-service reliant manufacturing & services
Growing technology industries, yielding new types of manufacturers & service providers
Use of corporate GA & fractional ownership
Intermodal air/truck/rail logistics

Changing Freight Patterns
Higher value/weight*
Higher time sensitivity*
Overnight delivery*
Small package delivery trucks
Air & Marine port dependence on rail & hwy
Rail & truck companies focus on long-hauls

The Story of Economic ImpactsAIRPORT ACTIVITY: number of based aircraft by type; estimated operations by
private aircraft, charter/air taxi services, commercial cargo services, commuter or air carriers; volumes of freight and number of commercial passengers
AIRPORT FUNCTION: commuter, corporate, reliever, destination, hub, gateway, maintenance functions
AIRPORT CAPABILITIES/CONSTRAINTS: critical aircraft type (prop, corporate jet, air carrier craft); weight and range limits for critical aircraft; lighting and navigation aids
NEARBY FACILITIES: Industrial parks, business parks, resorts and other attractions
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE REGIONAL ECONOMY: population, workforce size and education, employment by industry; local growth/change patterns in those factors relative to broader state and national factors
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE REGIONAL SETTING: tourism attractions, business location site opportunities; supporting infrastructure; distance/connections to interstate highways, ports, urban centers, market area

![Page 27: Understanding the Economic Development Contribution of Airports](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681685a550346895dde901d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Airport Community Development Role Preserve/enhance functioning of rural communities
Examples: provide lifelines for transportation, freight, medical evacuation
Support local institutions Local, regional and statewide importance
Other ways that airports provide benefits Examples: military use, air shows, non-aviation land use

Industry Composition• Presence of industries that
use more aviation (travel, cargo) than average
• Presence of industries that use more aviation (travel, cargo) than average
• Potential for job growth in these industries
Tourism Potential• Jobs created due to
increases in visitors and expenditures
• Strength of tourist attractions in service area
• Current visitor expenditures
• Presence of a resort
Runway Capacity• Accommodate corporate
jets, cargo or commercial flights (type of craft most appropriate to meet local economic development needs).
Airport Services• Refueling facilities• Maintenance facilities• Pilots Shop• Passenger terminal• Cargo terminal
