National Airport System Plan (NASP)

The National Airport System Plan (NASP) is a comprehensive strategy that guides how airports across a country are developed and maintained to meet future transportation needs. It assesses current airport infrastructure, forecasts future demand, and identifies improvements or expansions necessary to ensure safe, efficient, and reliable air travel. The plan helps government agencies and stakeholders prioritize investments, optimize airport locations, and enhance connectivity, ultimately supporting economic growth and public mobility. By planning systematically, NASP ensures that the airport network remains effective and resilient as aviation needs evolve over time.
