Integration of Contingency Planning for Small Airports
Contingency planning is crucial for small airports to best position themselves for addressing
disruptions and contingencies - such as the COVID-19 pandemic - that impact staffing, financial
and information technology resources, infrastructure, facilities, and/or supply chain shortages.
ACRP Web-Only Document 59: Integration of Contingency Planning for Small Airports,
from TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program,
provides resources, tools, and examples of integration that
can guide future efforts undertaken by small airports. Smart, integrated contingency planning can
minimize the operational and economic impacts to airports and their stakeholders and those who depend on their
services.
