From pod to plane (and park?)

These cute little driverless vehicles are called ‘pods’ and they’re used to transport passengers between the business car park and the main terminal at Heathrow Terminal 5. But could perform a similar function at your park or attraction?

The 21 battery-powered, emission-free pods were introduced to cut down on the number of internal bus journeys at the London airport and are capable of transporting around 30,000 passengers every month.

A much large order was recently secured for Amritsar Airport in northern India. Heathrow is a 75% shareholder in the vehicle’s manufacturer, Ultra Global PRT, based in the English city of Bristol.
