Synergy between Airports and Urban Development for Sustainable Development

This concept note is a joint initiative of ICAO and UN-Habitat to: Identify global good practices and principles in urban and regional planning and management around air transport infrastructure that can be applied to help sustainably develop air transport infrastructure and services to achieve airport city (ies) development axis (corridors). Assess and document the trends in and impacts of airports and air traffic on land use around the airport and along the airportcity corridor in selected airports to track land use changes and compliance to urban planning regulations, its related socio-economic and ecological impacts to sustainable urban development. Develop conceptual, methodological and operational spatial and visualization frameworks that will highlight the role of airport systems (infrastructure and services) to urban development beyond the city, along the airport-city axis and the airport-rural area trajectory; and study the synergistic relations to sustainable development.
