With the rise of autonomous vehicles, the extent of disruption to transport including at airports, public transportation and freight movement is yet to be determined. Traditional reliance on parking revenue at airports may need to be reassessed and appropriate infrastructure developments to ensure AVs reduce congestion. Furthermore, there is fear that AVs may become a better alternative to domestic flights and reduce the need for air travel. There are also an abundance of opportunities that open up to reduce carbon footprints and pollution, free up space from reduced parking demand, improve congestion and improve the health and amenity of residents live in proximity of airports.
