2. Manufacturing, warehousing, and trucking should be separate from
other business areas and passenger flows.
3. Green space should separate developments.
4. Strip developments, such as strip malls, should be limited.
5. Expressways and express trains should connect the airport with major
business and residential areas.
6. Truck-only lanes in busy areas would reduce traffic congestion and
improve safety.
7. Businesses that use the airport the most should be closest to it.
8. Noise and emission-sensitive commercial and residential areas should

lie outside high-intensity flight paths”.

The structure and land uses of an Aerotropolis is very much in common
with any other major city, except for the layout and emphasis on the inte-
grated airport with other land use concept. The emphasis of this new city

is no longer ‘Location, Location and Location’, but ‘Accessibility, Accessibil-
ity, and Accessibility’. (Kasarda J. & Lindsay, 2011, p.10)

If we consider the Kasardian model of the airport integrated city, we
would considering, inter alia, the following major closely integrated land

uses:

 The airport itself

 Logistics Area with a Free Trade Zone

 Warehouse & Distribution Centre

 Global Transparks including: Research & development Park

 Convention & Exhibition Centre
