GTA designed the world first Pod at Heathrow Terminal 5.

 

Leading on infrastructure integration and user experience our team played a definitive role in the evolution of the ULTra system and its integration into the airport environment. We advised HAL/BAA prior to the appointment of ULTra/ATS and later developed guideway configurations, stations and user interfaces integrating engineering disciplines to deliver an intuitive and seamless passenger experience.

​

Pod has carried 3m passengers for 5m miles of Level 4 autonomous operation and continues to record the highest ratings for availability and passenger satisfaction of any service at Heathrow. 

​

No alteration has been required to the GTA design. A world first right first time.
