Georgia Statewide Aviation System Plan
The Georgia Department of Transportation, Aviation Programs Office, has recently completed an update to the Georgia Statewide Aviation System Plan (GSASP). The process used to update This report provides a summary of information from the GSASP and highlights important information from the study as it pertains specifically to Monroe-Walton County Airport (D73).
The process used to update the GSASP was consistent with FAA’s Advisory Circular 150/5070-7 - The Airport System Planning Process. Ultimately, the GSASP recommendations for Monroe-Walton County Airport are a blend of projects/actions identified by the system plan and projects related to pavement maintenance and rehabilitation from Georgia’s 2012 Statewide Airfield Pavement Management Study. An update to the Statewide Airfield Pavement Management Study began in 2018; when that analysis is completed, additional projects in the pavement management and maintenance categories will likely be identified for the Airport.
The GSASP is important because it gathers information on current activity, facilities, and services at the 103 study airports. One objective for this update was to provide information showing how the system has changed since the 2002 GSASP was published. As shown in the graphics below, GDOT, FAA, and local investments at system airports have significantly elevated statewide system performance for the measures shown in this report.
