One of the airport’s neighbors, the National Aerospace Research and Technology Park, received funding to develop “autonomous vehicles” that would operate “on and around an airfield environment,” according to a statement from Menendez’ office. “We truly believe that once these facilities are constructed here, we're positioned for exponential growth.” Research into self-driving cars “There has been a growing trend in the cargo industry where freight forwarders are increasingly looking to smaller, less congested airports to move their products more cheaply, quickly and reliably,” Dougherty said.
The 75,000-square-foot structure could process nearly 9,000 tons of cargo each month, noted Stephen Dougherty, executive director for the airport’s operator, the South Jersey Transportation Authority.
