In Tokyo Capital region, logistics needs are increasing. On the other hand, space for these logistics facilities is limited. But method for redevelopment of the logistics area is not yet examined. So, for bay area in Tokyo Capital region as the target area, future direction of port hinterland redevelopment measures for the purpose of logistics, including increasing efficiency of international logistics, accessibility among various transportation modes and advancing the usage of the logistics area is examined and proposed.

In the international air passenger transport, OFOD statistics based on air tickets published by ICAO is generally used as O-D flows. However, since OFOD statistics counts transfer passengers twice, it is different from net O-D flows. This paper proposes the methodology to estimate the net O-D flows. Assuming route choice behavior and ticket type choice behavior of passengers, we estimate net O-D flows combining OFOD and TFS statistic. Applying this method to 10 metropolises in the world, we showed that about 30% discrepancy was found between OFOD statistics and estimated O-D flows.

Secondary slot sales between airlines are allowed from late of 90s based on the precedent in UK, which has suffered from capacity shortage in hub-airports as well as Japan, and these sales are accomplished by exchanges slots with money which covers difference of their value. While this scheme definitely contributes to utilize scarce airport capacities, it is necessary to clarify rights included in slots, to distribute gains from the sales between stakeholders, to clarify information regarding the sales and to prevent oligopoly for further application of the scheme.

This paper reports the current status of the air traffic control procedures and the airspace redesign project in New York (NY) metropolitan area. In this area, the air travel passengers regularly have severe delay of flights due to the heavy air traffic volume. Therefore they are planning several countermeasures for improving such a situation. The airspace redesign is one of the biggest countermeasures. Currently, NY air traffics are controlled by using the three-dimensional airspace so densely. But the current airspace is still based on the design in 1960s and includes some inefficient systems. The airspace redesign in this time is expected to improve the efficiency of air traffic control procedures. The concepts in this airspace redesign and also in current system are very informative for the air traffic control system in Japan.
