Limos and Taxis Coexist

The airport is often a confusing place to pick up or be picked up from as there are always so many cars and people going in every direction trying not to be late. This is often why people organise airport transfers through a limousine hire company so they can avoid the hassles of luggage and parking and simply follow their calm and in control chauffeur through the terminal and out to the waiting limousine.

However, not everyone is so free from the congestion of the airport and the Richmond International Airport is searching for a solution to the congestion between taxis, hired limousines and the general public.

The airport has recently undergone a redevelopment to create new roadways and traffic routes for passengers and vehicles to easily get to the part of the airport they need. The most direct route for passengers to get to the airline ticket counters is via the new upper-level roadway which is currently reserved only for use by motorists, taxis and limousines.

The courtesy shuttles around the airport were part of the group restricted to the ground level making it harder for passengers with armfuls of luggage to get up the stairs and outside.

These weaknesses highlighted will be evaluated in a 30 day trial to decide whether the upper level of the terminal can cope with the increased traffic.

Limousines and chauffeurs are targeted at many airports and Richmond is no different as the chauffeurs have been seen to leave their limousines parked in front of the terminal for extended periods of time, blocking the way for other vehicles.
 
The nature of the chauffeur’s airport transfer dictates that the limousine be close by when the chauffeur and the passenger come out of the airport, so surely there needs to be an area created where there is room to stop and room to pass quickly.
