Realterm, an investment company focused on transportation real estate, has partnered with the Susquehanna Area Regional Airport Authority (SARAA) to develop a new cargo facility at Harrisburg International Airport (MDT) in Pennsylvania. The project aims to deliver up to 105,000 square feet of prime cargo space, positioned directly next to the airfield apron. This strategic location is designed to facilitate efficient aircraft loading and unloading operations.
For freight forwarders and operations managers, this development signifies an expansion of air cargo capacity in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. Increased cargo space and direct apron access at MDT could lead to improved turnaround times for air freight, potentially offering new routing options for shippers looking to bypass more congested hubs. This could also influence local air freight rates by providing more competitive options and enhancing overall operational efficiency for cargo movements through Harrisburg.
