Airport Infrastructure Investment: Strategic Interaction or Strategic Allocation?
Transportation Research Record, 2015Co-Authors: Jeffrey J. Eloff, Jeffrey P. CohenAbstract:As the FAA forecasts air traffic growth for U.S. carriers to increase (by 90% in revenue passenger miles and by 50% in the number of handled aircraft) over the next 20 years, Airports consequently will be subjected to problems associated with substantially increased levels of demand. One component of the solution is expected to come from further investments in improvements to Airport Infrastructure. Given current fiscal constraints, the inherent network structure of the National Airspace System, and the fact that delays and congestions propagate throughout the system, would it be more efficient for capital investments to be made in an integrated and intelligent fashion—one that serves to maximize the productivity of the entire system—rather than on an Airport-by-Airport basis? Therefore, the goals of this research were to understand current Airport interactions and to provide a framework for quantifying how interactions spread throughout the network. These insights were uncovered by exploiting the network...

Airport Infrastructure Investment
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2015Co-Authors: Jeffrey J. Eloff, Jeffrey P. CohenAbstract:As the FAA forecasts air traffic growth for U.S. carriers to increase (by 90% in revenue passenger miles and by 50% in the number of handled aircraft) over the next 20 years, Airports consequently will be subjected to problems associated with substantially increased levels of demand.

Therefore, the goals of this research were to understand current Airport interactions and to provide a framework for quantifying how interactions spread throughout the network. These insights were uncovered by exploiting the network structure of the National Airspace System in the framework of spatial econometric modeling. The data necessary to determine these relationships came from multiple sources: the Bureau of Transportation Statistics Schedule T-100 data on origin–destination pairs provided dynamic measures of connectivity, while FAA data on Airport investments provided the necessary information to determine Infrastructure investment patterns.

Airport Infrastructure spillovers in a network system
Journal of Urban Economics, 2003Co-Authors: Jeffrey P. Cohen, Catherine J. Morrison PaulAbstract:Abstract Airports in the US air transport network have become increasingly congested, leading to delays for business travelers and freight shipments. Since disruptions in one part of the network exacerbate problems throughout the system, Airport Infrastructure expansions to enhance air traffic flows confer travel-time savings and reliability benefits, and thus increased worker productivity and shipping efficiency for manufacturing firms. We evaluate such spillovers, and find that higher own-state Airport Infrastructure implies lower manufacturing costs from both labor- and materials-savings. Airport expansion in connected states has a comparable effect for states with hub Airports, and an even greater impact for other states.

Hub and Spoke Airport Networks and State Airport Infrastructure Spillovers: A Spatial Econometrics Approach
Research Papers in Economics, 2001Co-Authors: Jeffrey P. Cohen, Catherine J. Morrison PaulAbstract:In recent years, many hubs in the highly interdependent U.S. air transport network have become congested, leading to delays for business travelers and freight shipments. Recent events in this industry may have temporarily reduced this congestion, but contributed to other types of disruptions. Since delays and disruptions at one node of the network exacerbate problems throughout the system, Airport Infrastructure expansion to enhance traffic flows and security in large hubs may confer substantive spillover benefits in the form of travel-time savings and reliability. This may in turn translate into increased worker productivity and shipping efficiency, and thus lower costs, for manufacturing firms. In this paper we evaluate the impacts of such spillovers, by applying spatial econometrics techniques to a cost function framework, using state-level data on Airport and highway Infrastructure, and manufacturing production. We find that increasing own-state Airport Infrastructure tends to generate costsaving benefits for the state’s manufacturing industry, primarily due to non-production laborand materials-savings. However, Airport expansion in connected hubs has an even greater impact, implying an important externality component of such investment. Also, unless Airport expansion is accompanied by highway Infrastructure investment, congestion seems to counteract the associated benefits, especially in large-hub states with less than 5 percent of the nation’s passenger enplanements.

risk mitigation strategy for public private partnership ppp of Airport Infrastructure development in indonesia
International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists, 2017Co-Authors: Rusdi Usman LatiefAbstract:The capacity of Indonesian Government to grow the country to become developed country in 2025 as mentioned in The Master Plan for Acceleration and Expansion of Indonesia’s Economic Development (abbreviated MP3EI) faces many challenges, one of them is financial capacity. Huge archipelago like Indonesia needs to be connected by good Infrastructure, especially an Airport, and it is needed enough funding for the government to make an equitable development. The government realizes the limitation or gap in funding the Infrastructure needs. The government comes with the concept to form the cooperation with private sectors as known as a Public Private Partnership (PPP). The PPP schemes are expected to fulfill the financial problems in Infrastructure service providing. Therefore, the aim of the study is to develop risk mitigation strategy for Airport Infrastructure and expected to solve the lack of succession of PPP. The research study was conducted by collecting data from Indonesian Airports. The data used were primary and secondary data with validity test and reliability also descriptive analysis method. The primary based on field survey, while secondary according to the study on various literatures of the success with the implementation of PPP in Indonesia and abroad. The findings and recommendations are risk response and risk strategy in order to solve of each risk that already identified. Risk response can be: Retention, Avoidance, Reduction, or Transfer.

implementing of risk assessment model for public private partnership ppp of Airport Infrastructure development in indonesia
Indian journal of science and technology, 2015Co-Authors: Rusdi Usman LatiefAbstract:Infrastructure is one of cause of Indonesian economic growth slowly and competitiveness more weakness. Limitation of Government’s budget in building of the Airport Infrastructure development drives the project implementation to the Government cooperation scheme between public and private sectors known as Public Private Partnership (PPP), whereas PPP in Indonesian Airport Infrastructure development is relatively recent issue. The purpose of the study are to develop the conceptual model of the assessment and risk response, to analyze the risk characteristics, and to analyze the risk assessment and response of Public Private Partnership (PPP) for Indonesian Airport Infrastructure. The research data was derived from various Airports in Indonesia. Interview and survey had been conducted with several institutions from primary and the secondary data both government and private institutions, namely the General Director of Air Transportation of Transportation Department, Airport Authority, Central Bureau of Statistics, PT Angkasa Pura 1st and 2nd. Analytical tools used in this research were Probability Impact Matrix. Conceptual model of risk assessment of PPP for Airport Infrastructure in Indonesia is an approach model of risk management that has been developed completely by adding risk allocation and risk mitigation strategies. The results indicated that the assessment analyze of the risk exist at the level of the category of ‛extreme’ and ‛high’ of four levels of the available categories.

Nusantara: Between sky and earth, could the PPP be the solution for Indonesian Airport Infrastructures?
Case Studies on Transport Policy, 2013Co-Authors: Laurent Carnis, Eny YuliawatiAbstract:This paper deals with the Airport Infrastructures in Indonesia and it investigates the possibility of defining a solution for their funding. Indeed the economic development in Indonesia requires huge capital needs for completing the numerous plans of investment in transport and particularly for the Airport Infrastructures. More than 63% of the budget for the Airport Infrastructure needs is not funded, while the characteristics of Airport Infrastructure investments involve large amounts of money with a very low rate of return. It raised the questions how to attract the private investors and to conceive appropriate contracting dimensions for associating the private sector with the Indonesian government. The Aviation Act No 1/2009 stated that the government will let an important role to the private sector related to the transfer of management and ownership of Airport Infrastructures. It means also that the Indonesian government will support the creation of public private partnerships (PPP). Therefore it required to think how the Indonesian government could create a more conductive climate to stimulate the private sector investment for the Indonesian Airport Infrastructures.

Impact analysis of Airport Infrastructure within a sustainability framework: Case studies on Hong Kong International Airport
International Journal of Sustainable Transportation, 2016Co-Authors: Becky P.y. LooAbstract:ABSTRACTBenefit–cost analysis (BCA) and multicriteria analysis (MCA) are widely used methods in evaluating transport projects. However, traditional BCA covers limited environmental and social impacts, while MCA is criticized for its potential subjectivity and lack of robustness. This article aims to enhance the traditional BCA with more environmental and social impacts that are typically considered in MCA only. It proposes an impact analysis framework based on 17 major publicly accessible studies of Airport Infrastructure appraisals around the world. From the perspective of sustainability, the economic, environmental, and social impacts are considered holistically. The application of this framework is illustrated in two cases of Hong Kong International Airport—an ex-post relocation case and an ex-ante expansion case. The overall sustainability benefit–cost ratios (BCRs) of Hong Kong International Airport relocation and expansion are 1.23 and 1.63, respectively. When each sustainability dimension is consid...
