2) GENERAL INFORMATION: In August 2002, the Public Airport Authority Act, MCL 259.108-259.125 (“Act 90”) transferred full operational jurisdiction of the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport and the Willow Run Airport from the Charter County of Wayne to the Wayne County Airport Authority (Airport Authority). The Airport Authority became responsible for the management and operation of the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County (DTW) and Willow Run (YIP) Airports, including the power to plan, promote, extend, maintain, acquire, purchase, construct, improve, repair, enlarge and operate both airports.

The Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is one of the largest domestic and international airports in the United States and has a major role in the future of southeast Michigan and the national airport system. The Willow Run Airport serves as a reliever airport, primarily serving cargo and general aviation activity.

Moving walkways have been installed at various locations throughout McNamara Terminal, Evans Terminal, McNamara Parking Deck, and Big Blue Parking Deck in an effort to improve customer satisfaction. However, due to varying factors, moving walkways at several areas within the referenced locations are either required to be removed, or are otherwise no longer desired to be in operation by the Airport Authority.
