Digital screens have been installed at Gatwick Airport to provide drivers with the latest traffic and travel information from the nearby M25 and M23 motorways.
The information will be supplied directly by the Highways Agency website, as well as live cameras and the National Traffic Control Centre in Birmingham, so drivers can plan their journey and avoid potential delays.
There are four screens which are situated at the two parking pay stations, and the valet parking and car hire areas.
Simon Duke, of the Highways Agency, said: “This initiative is a great opportunity for the Highways Agency and BAA Gatwick to provide a link between air travel and road transport. The information points will enable travellers arriving at the airport to plan their onward journey from Gatwick and will ultimately help to provide safer roads and more reliable journeys.”
Gatwick is the first airport in the south east to install the traffic information screens and it hopes they will benefit both passengers and airport staff when planning their onward journey
