This month regular co-hosts Mark Hansford and Alexandra Wynne are joined by Henrik Rothe who runs the Urban Turbine out of Cranfield University, and is rethinking how airports of the future will operate and integrate with the towns and cities that they serve. Tune in to hear Henrik explain how rapid changes to the way we check-in, deal with our baggage and move through security will transform how airports are accessed and used. Henrik will cite examples from Europe and worldwide and discuss the hottest topic of them all – is expanding Heathrow the right solution to the capacity issue in south east England?
The interview with Henrik begins at 20:28.
Mark and Alex also discuss the ongoing questions around the validity of High Speed 2 and the national disgrace that is the three-year closure of the historic Hammersmith Bridge in London.
The Engineers Collective is powered by Bentley Systems. As part of its ongoing digital transformation, Infraero Airport is using Bentley Systems Software to create a digital twin of José Richa airport in southern Brazil. Including an engineering ready reality mesh and central repository for all its data, Going Digital with Bentley is saving the organisation in excess of £120,000 per year.
