Help pilot the airport’s future
Friday, April 13, 2018 by Katy McElroy
As Austin grows, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport traffic does too: 2017 saw a record 13.88 million travelers. The ABIA 2040 Master Plan is being developed to ensure adequate expansion to accommodate all these passengers. An important component of the plan is a continued focus on preserving the airport’s “Austin atmosphere,” and the master plan team is gathering community input for ideas on how best to do that. The second public workshop will be on April 19, 6-8:30 p.m., at 2716 Spirit of Texas Drive. There will be a presentation at 6:30 p.m., informational displays, and a Q&A session with consultants, planners and engineers from the plan team.
