Wheels For Westinghouse Escalators

Changing The Way We Live & Work

As populations in large towns and cities increase, the requirement for efficient use of space is paramount to continued success. With restrictions in ground space in cities architecture has responded to an ever growing population by utilising height. The escalator has helped transform accessibility in both domestic and commercial applications. People were able to live and work in taller buildings without the constraints of stairs. The escalator has been heralded as one of the most important innovations in retail shopping – allowing consumers to seamlessly move between levels.

Changing Travel

As transportation hubs expand the moving walkway (also known as travelator) provides an efficient and cost effective solution to move high volumes of people around a site.  Moving walkways enable the feasibility of expansion which otherwise would be limited. When passengers have further to travel to reach their gate or departure point moving walkways help speed up traveling time to gates and terminals and provide accessibility for more passengers.
