    TRAVELATOR
    • A moving walkway, also known as an autowalk, moving sidewalk,
    moving pavement, people-mover, travolator, or travelator, is a slow-
    moving conveyor mechanism that transports people across a horizontal
    or inclined plane over a short to medium distance. Moving walkways can
    be used by standing or walking on them. They are often installed in
    pairs, one for each direction.
    • Travellators are designed to carry people safely, swiftly and comfortably.
    Travelators are generally provided in areas where people need to walk
    long distances with luggage, baggage carts or shopping carts. A
    Travelator is generally flat, but can be slightly inclined.

    APPLICATIONS
    Ski resorts

    Skiers on a moving walkway


    Moving walkways known as Magic carpets are also used in ski
    resorts. Skiers can place their skis on the walkway, which is designed
    to provide a strong level of grip. Since the walkways cannot be too
    steep and are slow compared to other aerial lifts, they are used
    especially for beginners or to transport people over a short uphill
    distance, such as to reach a restaurant or another lift's station.
    Moving walkways can also be found at chairlifts' entrances to help
    passengers in the boarding process.
    Stores

    • In the UK, inclined travelators are
    used in stores, including Asda, B&M
    Bargains, IKEA, Marks & Spencer,
    Morrisons, Sainsbury's, and Tesco.
    For example, Tesco in Aberystwyth
    uses six inclined travelators (three
    up, three down in a criss-cross
    layout) to transport shoppers and
    their trolleys between the store, the
    rooftop car park and the under-store
    car park.
