BAA to build ULTra PRT in Heathrow
In message , Roland Perry
writes Are those the tunnels that are currently used by taxis, and have a "loading gauge" hanging over the entrance? Or are the service tunnels in addition to those? It looks like it. A proposed route is shown on page 3 of ... http://www.atsltd.co.uk/media/casest...se_studies.pdf Page 4 shows (somewhat surprisingly) that it is possible to fit four people-mover tracks inside one service tunnel - although it doesn't explain what will be done with the displaced taxi traffic! I wonder if there might be room to retain a taxi-way below the upper pair of tracks? The maps on pages 59-62 of the Heathrow Masterplan (big download) ... http://www.heathrowairport.com/asset...MasterPlan.pdf show more extended systems, with different routes, to take account of the third runway proposal. -- Paul Terry |
