Airports often face problems with congestion on taxi & bus lane, when private cars parked on the lanes by the terminals, causing problems for the taxi and bus companies. For smooth traffic flow by the terminals, Scirocco UHF then provides convenient access control for taxis, limousines and buses.
All type of vehicles need to be identified, from normal cars to buses. In particular, fast moving vehicles create a specific demand to be identified at high speed. In a combined employee- and long-term parking area, the airport makes best possible use of available land, and can use its shuttle buses also for employee transportation.
With a Scirocco tag inside the vehicle’s windscreen, and each entry and exit lane equipped with a barrier and a reader, including taxi lanes, the problem is solved. For taxis, for example, each tag represents a specific vehicle and recipient of the airport charges. Each vehicle is allowed to stay for a certain time, and if exceeded, the operator will be charged for the extra time. Congestion is minimised and unauthorized taxis are blocked from picking up passengers.
