A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This paper categorizes the economic impacts of airport construction and operation and outlines methodologies that are available to assess the magnitude of these impacts. A review of empirical studies suggests that existing methodologies are not always well used and that certain gaps in our knowledge make the article of faith that airports always significantly affect economic growth questionable.
This paper was initially prepared for the INTRODUCTION TO AIRPORT DESIGN Short Course held at Loughborough University of Technology, 10th–14th December, 1979 and was later presented to a seminar at the Institute of Transportation Studies, University of California, Berkeley. The contribution of both these meetings to the present paper is acknowledged.
