This study was initiated by the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to evaluate the capacity benefits of a north crossfield taxiway system and to help determine the optimum time to initiate this airfield improvement. In order to evaluate these issues, the delay savings (improved taxi times) which would result from the north crossfield taxiway system were determined. For the purposes of this study, the delay savings benefits were calculated for different demand levels forecast for the airport and for different stages of airport development. The study was later expanded to include impacts on taxi times associated with different locations for the fourth airside terminal.
