WTS February Lunch Program - Expansion of Aviation in Seattle

Aviation connects people, cultures, and supports the global economy. The aviation sector has been experiencing a rapid growth in Seattle, propelled by the growth of travelers and freight services, lower air fares and new airline routes. Sea-Tac International Airport has moved up to become the eighth busiest U.S airport in 2018, and has served nearly 50 million passengers, a 43% increase since 2013. Please join WTS for a presentation by Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC), Paine Field, and Port of Seattle on how the regional airport system will support the existing and future demand. PSRC will provide insight on the Regional Aviation Baseline Study, which was funded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), analyzing the aviation forecast, existing and planned capacity, and airspace constraints in the region. The presentation will also highlight near term projects at SeaTac, the addition of passenger service at Paine Field, and future planning. When: February 27th, 2020 from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm. Networking begins at 11:30 am; the program begins at noon and ends at 1:00 pm. Where: HDR / 600 University Street, Suite 500, Seattle, WA 98101 Cost: $15 for students/public agency staff and DBE/MBE/WBE certified firms; $20 for WTS members; and $25 for WTS non-members (plus Brown Paper Tickets service fee).
