Transport Heritage – new national database

16th December 2008

Transport Heritage, our new website containing a large public database that commemorates Britain’s legacy in the development of transport, has just gone live. The new website has a vast amount of information about hundreds of historically significant locations within the UK.

Each location within the database also has an aerial view, a photo gallery, and live weather information.

There are integrated Google Maps for all the regions and counties within the country, a message board, calendar and lots more. It’s all integrated with the site’s powerful CMS (Content Management System), so officials all over the country can directly add information to the database.

Visually, the new site is designed to particularly appeal to young people, so that history and engineering are not perceived as stuffy subjects.

The next phase of the project will be to add a directory of important constructors, inventors and engineers.
