Truck Management System: JFK Cargo View - A Collaborative, Airport-Wide Information System to Coordinate Air Cargo Ground Operations and Speed Truck Traffic Flow Within JFK International Airport and the Surrounding Community
This study was conducted by the project team from April 2021 to December, 2021. GatewayJFK and the Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation (CAIT) at Rutgers University jointly funded this study. During the study period, several site visits and interviews of stakeholders were conducted by project team members in the off-airport GatewayJFK district and JFK Airport facilities to obtain input from stakeholders and observe operations. These include on-airport cargo ground handlers, off-airport transportation companies (including their truck drivers), and residents. In addition, several visits were made to the district to observe truck movement and business activity in the area, and residential uses impacted by the adjacent warehouse and logistics properties. Online and in-person surveys were conducted to gauge stakeholder satisfaction and insights as well the difficulty of getting to JFK Airport Area, level of congestion experienced, and delays related to the loading/unloading of cargo on-airport, and the challenges inherent within the off-airport GatewayJFK district. The preliminary results of this Phase I study are a compelling business case for an airport-wide Truck Flow Management System (TFMS) and a list of future investments to retain and grow air cargo business at JFK Airport, and to enhance and support the on- and off-airport synergy vital to the world’s supply chain.
