Summary
Airport access and circulation roadways, curbside roadways, and service roads are used by a wide variety of vehicles. The operating characteristics of airport terminal area roadways differ from those of non-airport roadways because of the high proportion of motorists who… are unfamiliar with the airport as well as the presence of many professional drivers who use the airport frequently.
