Narrative:
Excessive runway crossing by refueling vehicles, combined with other airport vehicles, number close to 100 runway xings a day. A perimeter road that's only planned would be the solution to this potentially hazardous situation. This situation became more severe with the start up of a new commuter service on the field.
