Generating Revenue from Commercial Development On or Adjacent to Airports

TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Research Report 176: Generating Revenue from Commercial Development On or Adjacent to Airports provides guidance for developing or redeveloping on-airport and adjacent properties so that development can contribute to overall airport revenue.

The report explores methods and considerations and provides specific checklists to assist airports in preparing and implementing a commercial development plan. It addresses advantages and disadvantages of on-airport versus off-airport land development opportunities, as well as marketing and legal issues.

The report includes case study information that highlights successful and unsuccessful examples of commercial development on and around airports. A customizable MSWord file containing the checklists is available for download.
