I agree with you completely, the only thing I suggest you do is to write to the CEO and tell him what you think. I may well do the same after I have used the airport.

The problem is that with space being at a premium within the terminal, the last thing needed is crowds of people standing around looking at pictures and diagrams on walls causing blockages. That in itself would cause problems with circulation and potential H&S concerns. That especially applies in the baggage reclaim area where there's preciou nos little space as it is. What they should have done is put some screens up in the departure lounge areas with a fly through video on repeat, giving passengers an opportunity to see the plans in screen whilst sitting around. That's far more professional and causes no blockages in circulation areas.I agree with you completely, the only thing I suggest you do is to write to the CEO and tell him what you think.

When I last went through LBA images of the regen project were being shown on the advertising screens….admittedly you had to wait for the various adverts to scroll through but they were there. Have they now gone??The problem is that with space being at a premium within the terminal, the last thing needed is crowds of people standing around looking at pictures and diagrams on walls causing blockages.

I didnt look at the screens, where are they?When I last went through LBA images of the regen project were being shown on the advertising screens….admittedly you had to wait for the various adverts to scroll through but they were there. Have they now gone??
I agree with your synopsis on current “advertising” of the Regen scheme but do you think that maybe as you go through the airport on both the departure and arrival that some pictures of what the future will look like should be in, and on, those separate passenger process stages ?The problem is that with space being at a premium within the terminal, the last thing needed is crowds of people standing around looking at pictures and diagrams on walls causing blockages.

Yes, but on screens, not on walls which will always lead to people stopping to look, causing an obstruction. In departures, screens in seating areas and one or two in the queuing area at Border Control where there's a slow moving captive audience. Definitely not in baggage reclaim .It would cause real problems down there..I agree with your synopsis on current “advertising” of the Regen scheme but do you think that maybe as you go through the airport on both the departure and arrival that some pictures of what the future will look like should be in, and on, those separate passenger process stages ?
I think you might find that the Fire Officer disagrees with you. In public buildings circulation areas, particularly near staircases, should be kept clear and putting things on the wall which might encourage people to stop and look wouldn't go down well should the airport be subjected to an inspection.Personally I don't think there's any excuse not to have the information plastered on any wall or wondow around the building. The arrivals walkway is one good example. Nobody stands and studies these things but some images particularly in crunch point areas would do LBA no harm.
So it's pointless putting it up then!Nobody is going to stand and study the odd one or two artist impressions. You could say the same for an advertisement.
Just what I said in my post. They should be everywhere. Dont need to be detailed, no need for lots of text- just a header and a CGI picture.Personally I don't think there's any excuse not to have the information plastered on any wall or wondow around the building.

Exactly, no dwell time, just a quick hey look what we're doing!Just what I said in my post. They should be everywhere. Dont need to be detailed, no need for lots of text- just a header and a CGI picture.
