It is important that either there is an 'on-site' station or there is a bus link between the nearest appropriate station and the airport to meet all trains. Bus services should be able to easily access the airport and if en route the diversion to serve the airport should be kept to a minimum so as not to disenfranchise users of the service who have no interest in going to the airport.
For those travelling by car the road system will need to be upgraded to cope and not to have adverse impacts on bus services.
