Environmental impacts of infrastructure upgrading as transportation hub: a case study of KLIA 2

The paper describes the malaysian experiences with airport expansion. In malaysia, the rise of low cost air travel has had the government revising the current capacity of the international airport provision. The research relates the experiences of major expansion phases of the Kuala Lumpur Internat...
