Manchester Airport Drop Off Lanes
Manchester Airport has become one of the first in the UK to scrap free drop off lanes for cars.
Steep charges will start being levied for drop off times of around three or four minutes on all cars simply dropping off passengers whoa are getting flights from the airport.
The airport authorities insist it is simply the only way to try and deal with the crippling congestion problem that has beset the airport for a long time, with the airport claiming that many drivers are effectively doing circuits of the drop off zone, rather than using a short stay car park.
In any event, the decision will, and has, already proven highly controversial.
