[Shuttle] [mch2021-terrain] Shuttle drop off / pick up

[Hugh Wells]

Hey, 

I wanted to follow up on this and confirm that there was still an intention to provide somewhere we can drop off/collect people for the Shuttles, within Parking?

I believe there's a separate discussion about wheelbarrows/gators for luggage. 

As mentioned to Terrain during the physical meetup, it's also important that the Shuttle has a way to get in and out that is separate from the queue of traffic for parking. 

Let me know if a call would be useful to discuss. 

Thanks,

Hugh

Ideally not with reversing as from a risk assessment point of view, it's dangerous and something we should look to avoid where possible. We'd prefer the vans to be able to drive forward and out, or to be able to turn around in an area without people (eg. LHQ).
