Impacts of Artvin Rize Airport on Transportation and Environment

Abstract

In transportation, the demand for air transportation, that serves fast and comfortable passenger transportation, increases day by day. This situation triggers airport investments. Although airport investments make economic and social contributions, they cause many negative environmental impacts. When there is not sufficient area for airports, offshore infill areas increase the negative environmental impacts. The reduction of living and plant species in the sea, air and water pollution, cause adverse impacts such as climate change and soil pollution. If precautions are not taken, irreversible damage will occur. For this reason, the necessity of the investment should be well analyzed, the damage to the environment should be minimized, and the measures should be planned. In the study, the environmental effects that may occur during the construction process of Artvin-Rize Airport and after launch were examined. The positive and negative aspects were put and recommendations were made.
