Proper contingency planning can help airports become resilient against disruptions. Contingency plans can prepare for impacts on staffing, financial and information technology resources, infrastructure, facilities, and/or supply chains. TRB hosted a webinar on Tuesday, October 1, 2024 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM Eastern that provided an overview of disruptions and contingencies that can impact small airport operations, mutual aid agreements, and other internal and external plans. Presenters shared research results and tools that were developed to address the unique needs of small airports in managing their contingencies.
This webinar was based on ACRP Web-Only Document 59: Integration of Contingency Planning for Small Airports.
This webinar was sponsored by TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program.
