ALASKA's Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is to build a warehouse to allow for air cargo to be stored on-Site.
Airport officials have issued a formal invitation to companies, seeking ideas for constructing and operating a quick cargo centre.
Airport manager Jim Szczesniak says the facility would allow cargo carriers to 'store stuff on a quick basis to keep things out of the elements and secure'. The warehouse would be situated near the cargo plane parking area, and it could house offices for shipping companies.
Mr Szczesniak says construction of the facility might be supported by the Alaska Economic Development and Export Authority, and the airport is seeking responses by mid-December, reports Associated Press.
