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.

    Capital Plan 2017-2026 2019 Reassessment - Capital Plan Changes Adopted at September 26, 2019 Board Meeting Capital Plan 2017-2026 2019 Reassessment 2017-2026 Capital Plan In February 2017, the Board of Commissioners adopted a ten-year 2017-2026 Capital Plan. The 2017-2026 Capital Plan (the Capital Plan) totaled $32.2 billion and included $29.5 billion in direct spending on Port Authority facilities, and a commitment to support debt service payments on $2.7 billion of Gateway Program Development Corporation low-cost borrowing for Phase 1 of the Gateway Program, subject to certain conditions. The Capital Plan represents a balanced portfolio of critical projects that affirms and supports the Port Authority’s mission to meet the region’s core transportation needs, while acting as good stewards of the public’s resources in a fiscally responsible way. The Capital Plan was developed using a comprehensive planning process and risk-based prioritization that considered: 21st century infrastructure priorities; existing asset conditions; operational and revenue impacts; threat assessments; customer service, regional benefit, regulatory or statutory requirements; and, long-term affordability of the Capital Plan. Since the Capital Plan was adopted, the Port Authority has completed significant milestones in the delivery of the Capital Plan. Below are significant milestones that have been met through June 2019: n The entire Bayonne Bridge project was completed in June 2019. Previously in June 2017, the Bayonne Bridge project had achieved its goal of 215 feet of navigational clearance. The Port has seen an increase in the size of vessels calling on the port, with nearly 20 percent of all containerized cargo at the port now carried on ultra-large efficient container vessels enabling the port to handle record levels of cargo.
