    PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS CHAPTER 2 Project Context PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS Project Context 2.1 PROJECT HISTORY As part of a post-World War II $200-million development program, and in anticipation of an increased population size, the City of New York sought to expand its highway and parkway system to allow for greater movement throughout the five boroughs. The six-lane Van Wyck Expressway (VWE) was envisioned to help carry passengers quickly from the newly constructed Idlewild Airport (present-day John F. Kennedy International Airport [JFK Airport]) to Midtown Manhattan. In 1945, the City of New York developed a plan to expand the then-existing Van Wyck Boulevard into an expressway. The City of New York acquired the necessary land in 1946 and construction began in 1948, lasting until 1953. The Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) bridges for Jamaica Station, which were originally constructed in 1910, were reconstructed in 1950 to accommodate the widened roadway. The designation of the VWE as an interstate highway started with the northern sections of the roadway between the Whitestone Expressway and Kew Gardens Interchange (KGI) in the 1960s. By 1970, the entire expressway was a fully designated interstate: I-678 (the VWE). In 1998, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) began work on AirTrain JFK, an elevated automated guideway transit system linking downtown Jamaica to JFK Airport. AirTrain JFK utilizes the middle of the VWE roadway to create an unimpeded link, connecting two major transportation hubs in Queens.

MEMORANDUM AVIATION DEPARTMENT FROM: Susan Warner-Dooley DATE: September 18, 2008 SUBJECT: 2007 ANNUAL TRAFFIC REPORT Attached is the 2007 Annual Traffic report, which provides important statistics on air traffic at our regional aviation facilities compiled by the Industry Analysis and Forecasting Unit. While the aviation industry remains a dynamic and cyclical industry, 2007 represented a year of growth on many fronts. The number of airports within the PANYNJ Airports System grew with the addition of Stewart International Airport. These airports have continued to serve the growing regional air service demand with record levels of aircraft operations and passengers for the system as a whole. JFK achieved record levels of aircraft operations and passenger traffic and added 17 additional destinations. Newark achieved record levels of international passengers and added 8 additional destinations. Daily departures and destinations also continued to grow at LGA. Stewart reached record levels in passengers.
