London Luton Airport

Travel to London Luton Airport (LLA) is being made easier, faster and greener with the development of the DART people mover.

And the final journey between shuttle stop and airport terminal is via a covered walkway designed, manufactured and installed by Broxap.

The walkway complements a series of canopies we created for the airport in 2019 as part of a bus and coach station upgrade.

Together the DART (Direct-Air-Rail-Transit) system and bus services are designed to encourage more people to leave their cars behind when flying from LLA as well as offer sustainable travel options to employees.

The 150-metre bespoke walkway guiding passengers to the terminal from the DART station is based on Broxap’s flagship ‘Newcastle’ design.

The freestanding walkway features clear multi-wall polycarbonate cladding and is an essential element in the passenger journey, forming the final connection between ground transportation and the boarding of aircraft.

A bespoke Hartcliffe Cantilever Shelter has also been made for the DART building to form a covered entrance area.

Testing of the shuttle system is now underway with an announcement on its opening due in early 2023.
