Airport Regions Conference

The Airport Regions Conference (ARC) is an association of regional and local authorities

Member Regions 2013

across Europe with an international airport situated within or near its territory.

The ARC brings together a wide range of expertise at the interface of air transport and local and regional policies. A common concern is to balance the economic benefits generated by the airports against their environmental impact, notably the effect on the quality of life of local residents.

ARC works with the European Commissioner for Transport and his Cabinet and the EC Directorates for Transport, for the Environment, and for the Regions.

Meet our members: Guylaine Paillaux

Monday 29th of April 2013
We would like to introduce to you people who are making a difference in their region and within the ARC. We begin with the County Council of Val d’Oise and Guylaine Paillaux who shared with us her recent experience attending the Regional Airports' Forum in Lyon.
