Jurisdiction and responsibilities
Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority Police provides law enforcement across airport property, including terminal areas and airport roadways. The airport describes approximately 5,000 acres of property within this service setting. The agency is distinct from Raleigh, Durham and Morrisville municipal police.
How the agency is organized
The official airport page identifies full-time and part-time sworn officers, airport security officers and support staff. Functions include foot and vehicle patrol, investigations, emergency response, special operations, traffic enforcement and lost-and-found service. Terminal offices and specialized assignments belong to one airport-authority agency.
Agency history and local context
The reviewed official page supplies current organizational and contact information but does not establish a founding year. The airport’s historical milestones are not automatically the police department’s establishment dates.
Official records and officer resources
Administration is 919-840-7550 during posted weekday office hours; non-emergency police assistance is 919-840-7510. The airport separately publishes 919-840-2111 for emergency communications and an anonymous tip line. Its official resources include directions, accident-report requests and parking-ticket information.
