Problem: Current State Airport Funding Large System Sole source of funds Tightening Budgets Construction Inflation Higher Fuel Costs Uncertainty CIP at 200% of budget Defensibility Need based = First come first served
ISE Themes Infrastructure System Goals / Priorities Living Database Budgeting / Estimating Pavement Management Project Selection Matrix
Prioritize – How?
Research: Rank Air System Goals Identify System Goals Rank Goals Explore Other Systems Explore User Needs
Research: Airport Projects Benefits Components Impact on System Optimum Timing Limitations / Other options
