The committee's existence closely parallels the history of bicycle transportation research in the United States. Very little was done prior to the mid-1970s, when a surge of interest in...

Long-awaited details for Ohio’s plan to at least partially lift the stay-at-home order and reopen the state could come as soon as Monday. Gov. Mike DeWine said last week that a “breakthrough” in the state’s testing capacity for COVID-19 will help ensure the state can reopen safely.

Central Ohio television viewers who use antennas had to rescan their television sets to comply with the Federal Communications Commission roll out of 5G technology. Local numbers aren’t available, but nationally, 16 million households or 14% of Americans, use an antenna to watch TV free over-the-air. That number continues to grow in the age of cord cutting.

More airport operations/management academic programs at both the high school and community college levels would help the airport industry. With baby boomers currently reaching retirement age at the rate of 10,000 each day, and later generations much smaller in size, new employees are not entering the workforce swiftly enough to replace those leaving because of retirement, illness, and other complicating factors. As a result, the aviation industry, like others, is experiencing a significant labor shortage...

Airports in the United States are responding to the demand for increased air travel with sustainable development that incorporates more energy-efficient and lower-emission technologies. Funding for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions-reducing technologies, such as electrification, alternative fuels, and renewable energy, has also become more accessible as technologies are proven to be safe, reliable, and cost-effective. Newer strategies and programs to reduce GHG emissions reach beyond airport operations to i...
