A study by an affiliate of the National Association of Real Estate Boards finds freeways and rapid rail systems raise nearby property values while airports rarely depress values. The work, from the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, cites San Francisco Bay area rapid transit growth and discusses social mobility and long term gains from planned mass transit and freeway development. It also includes rebuttals on jet noise near airports and notes long hair policy comments from the British Defense Ministry.
