Envirosuite has been exploring the aviation industry’s challenges as it returns to ‘normal’ operations. For this article, Envirosuite’s Matt Mills-Brookes and Peter Rafano spoke with Cynthia Woods, Manager, Noise Management Office at Toronto Pearson International Airport, to capture the thoughts of a world-leading airport in noise management and community engagement.
Like all businesses and individuals around the world, Toronto Pearson International Airport was impacted by the severe reduction in travel brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the latest statistics available indicating a 75.7% drop in passenger aircraft movements in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period the year prior. A similar, but less pronounced, drop was also experienced with noise complaints.
