Panel discussion: Air-to-rail hubs as connectors for regional economic growth

08 Apr 2025
N109
Airport cities, regions, and transportation connections
Airports and the communities around them benefit from better integration of multimodal connectivity. This panel will touch on the physical aspects such as ground transportation centers, alignment of rail and airport infrastructure, as well as aligning operationally between flight schedules and the onward-journey bus and train timetables. By efficiently linking the economic centers at the heart of the airport city, its distribution centers at the periphery, and the nearby and neighboring countries’ CBDs with sustainable modes of transportation, air-to-rail hubs start to truly become drivers for regional economic growth – giving back to society.
  • Best practices in multimodal development at airports
  • Case study designs of ground transportation centers at airports
  • Integration of air and rail infrastructure
  • Opportunities and challenges of aligning flight schedules and the onward-journey bus and train timetables
  • How to enhance the economic impact of air-rail integration
