The terminal ramp area is on the airfield side of the passenger terminal, and is used by commercial service aircraft during loading, unloading, servicing, and overnight storage. The approximate 25,000 square yards (sy) capacity of this ramp is maximized by the pier design of the terminal building. Three general aviation ramps (north, south, and east) are used by general aviation and charter aircraft for overnight, temporary, and long-term aircraft storage and service. The north ramp contains a stress pad to accommodate larger aircraft without damage to the ramp, as charter aircraft activity can bring larger aircraft, such as Boeing 737 and 757. The south ramp also has a stress pad to accommodate similar larger aircraft. The east ramp serves aircraft utilizing Runway 16L-34R, and will serve future east side development. The ramps contain tie-downs for aircraft storage. The cargo apron provides the transfer of shipments between aircraft and truck. The cargo apron is located southeast of Runway End 34L, near the primary runway, and away from FBO, passenger, and general aviation activity. In 2007, a project began to improve the cargo apron from 13,067sy, accommodating 7 (smaller) aircraft, to 26,133sy, accommodating 7 (larger) aircraft. This improvement will add a new facility, consolidating cargo processing from locations across the airfield to a centralized site. This facility and ramp will also accommodate charter aircraft and passengers. 1-9 Eugene Airport Master Plan Update (February 2010)
