A spokesman for the Civil Aviation Department said today:
efficient running of an airport requires the rapid dissemination of certain
essential information to airlines, their passengers, visitors, and associated
technical agencies. The system proposed is planned to implement this."
The system, run from one central control room, will be made up of
electronic display boards, guidance signs, information input terminals, and a
monitor and commmication network.
Display boards and signs will be "strategically positioned" throughout
the Airport Terminal Complex. Television display monitors will be used in areas
not served by the indicator boards to display the same information.
A public address system will serve as an additional passenger information
system as well as enable special broadcasts to be made.
