Air Transportation
As the demand for air travel and air cargo continues to grow, the air transportation system will find it increasingly difficult to accommodate the resulting levels of aircraft movements without significantly expanding the airport infrastructure. Yet many of the larger airports are severely constrained in their ability to expand their airside and landside facilities. Regional aviation therefore has become a significant growth factor in the national aviation and economic development arenas. The Airport Market Analysis notes that, “adequate general aviation facilities, properly promoted and funded, are necessary to ensure that a community fully participates in today’s economy.” The study has estimated that an airport serving the City of Maricopa could be expected to yield an annual economic impact in excess of $20 million and up to $50 million at maturity.Read the airport feasibility study.
