Noticed an elevated track being built from LHR T5 out to the Business Car Park on my inbound on Thursday evening. I assume it is for the jazzy new pods transporters which are being tried for the first time in the England:

ULTra Pods carry up to 4 people and will be used to ferry people between terminal 5 and the business car park.

Not sure female travellers would feel comfy in them alone at night with a strange man.

Apparent they have the pods in Cardiff already......

Shame about the seatcovering fabric in the video. Looks like somebody prolapsed after a firey vindaloo the night before....
