QUEENS, N.Y., May 4, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A new feasibility study of the air cargo supply chain process at JFK International Airport ("JFK") makes a case for how a new, connected airport-wide Truck Flow Management System (TFMS) would streamline cargo operations for truckers and airport personnel, save time, money and fuel, and improve quality of life for residents, business owners and workers in the surrounding community. The feasibility study, JFK Cargo View: A System to Speed Truck Traffic Flow at JFK International Airport, was conducted by Rutgers University's Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation (CAIT) and commissioned by GatewayJFK, a Business Improvement District representing the off-airport cargo community, a vital link in the world's supply chain.

Key Points: 
  • The goal of the TFMS is to improve efficiency and recoup the JFK cargo traffic lost since 9/11.
  • This is in contrast to 2000, when JFK Airport cargo tonnage ranked #3 among landed weight at US airports with 1.8 million tons.
  • Ed Figueroa, branch manager at global supply chain provider Kuehne + Nagel , confirms the frustration around cargo logistics at JFK Airport.
  • JFK Cargo View: A System to Speed Truck Traffic Flow at JFK International Airport, jointly funded by GatewayJFK and the Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation (CAIT) at Rutgers University, was conducted from April to December 2021.
