ACRP Impacts on Practice – Airports and Aging Travelers

The March 2015 issue of TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Impacts on Practice explores how Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) provides aging passengers with an easier, safer, and more enjoyable experience in its terminals. Upon publication of ACRP Synthesis 51: Impacts of Aging Travelers on Airports, employees at RSW met to review its current projects and identified potential projects and service improvements to make travelling through the airport more enjoyable for the aging traveler.
