Title:

Air Traffic Infrastructure Regional Study

Objective:

The proposals for airport and air traffic management investments in the region raise issues of planning appropriate capacity extensions on a regional scale. A regional study would bring a perspective which is lacking in purely national proposals.

Description:

The study would assess
(i) demand for air transport (passenger & cargo) with origin or destination in the region
(ii) aircraft movements including enroute demand in the region
(iii) implications for airport and air traffic infrastructure on a regional basis
(iv) resulting strategic options taking various scenarios into account, and priorities for investment
(v) implications for airport operation and air traffic management on a human resource and institutional level, including all aspects of project development, implementation and operation
(vi) recommendations for required training components

Preparation Status:

First discussions

EUR 5 000 000 (including training)

Borrower/Final Beneficiary:
