How can airports maintain safe, efficient ground handling operations through winter?

​Weather and climate have significant impacts on airport operations. Harsh weather conditions cause millions of dollars of damage each year, and ​cause disruption. The build-up of snow, ice, and slush affects aircraft access to runways, and risks disruption to ground handling services on ​aprons. While the weather cannot be controlled, airports do have solutions available to mitigate its impact.
