  1. Current Research in Airport Ground Transportation Prepared byPeter B. MandleJacobs Consultancy Prepared forAirport Ground Transportation AssociationFall ConferenceFort Worth, Texas September 11, 2007

  2. Outline • Airport Cooperative Research Program • Current ACRP projects related to: • Airport terminals • People movers/walkways • Parking and roadways • Synthesis—GT Rules • Other research • Opportunities for you • Questions

  3. What Is the ACRP? • Airport Cooperative Research Program • Created in December 2003 as part of the Vision 100 – Century of Aviation Act • Program is run by representatives of airport operating agencies • Purpose: collaborate on airport research taking insight and direction from various disciplines

  4. How Does It Work? • Funded annually by FAA—about $12 million in 2007 • Administered by National Academies / TRB on behalf of FAA (like NCHRP and TCRP) • Research projects can be suggested by anyone (e.g., AGTA) • ACRP Oversight Committee evaluates all submitted problem statements and selects those best meeting its objectives • Project Panels formed to oversee each selected project • Competitive selection of Research Teams by Project Panels • Research Teams conduct and publish guidelines, reports, etc.

  11. Legal Aspects of Airport Programs Survey of Airport Laws and Regulations ofCommercial Ground Transportation—Synthesis

  12. Survey of Airport Laws and Regulations of Commercial Ground Transportation • Purpose: Summarize all Federal, state, and local regulations for airport ground transportation operations • Goals: • Understand regulation in various locals • Compare government policies • Centralize all operations policies to enable knowledge sharing

  13. Survey of Airport Laws (cont.) • Study Areas: • For-hire personal transportation • Taxi cab open / closed systems • Tax and fee schemes • Operation procedures • Other personal transportation • Share-ride / shuttle services • Courtesy / charter vans • Rental cars

  14. Survey of Laws (cont.) • Research Plan: • Contact airport administrations • Search published municipal codes • Review state regulations dealing with CGT • Review state regulations dealing with airports • Review published airport regulations • Review and summarize Federal laws • Synthesize into a preliminary report • Conduct follow-up research as necessary

  15. How To Participate In Future Projects • Submit a problem statement • What does your airport need? • What will you Airport director find useful and immediately beneficial • Volunteer for a Project Panel • Lead/participate in a Research Team • Encourage others in your agency to do so

  16. Other Research • Amount of other on-going research related to airport ground transportation is limited • Often more theoretical or international in nature • ACRP research projects intended to be more practical in nature and of immediate value
