Coronavirus: guidance for staff in the transport sector

23 March 2020/Categories: CILT, Industry News, Active Travel & Travel Planning, Aviation, Bus & Coach, Ports, Maritime & Waterways, Rail, Transport Planning, Coronavirus

This guidance will assist transport settings in addressing coronavirus (COVID-19).

The main messages are:

• if someone becomes unwell while at a transport hub or on their journey with a new, continuous cough or a high temperature, they should be sent home

• passengers should wash their hands for 20 seconds before and after they have been on public transport and catch coughs and sneezes in tissues

• frequently clean and disinfect objects and surfaces that are touched regularly, using your standard cleaning products

• advise passengers they should not travel if they are feeling unwell with symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) - a new, continuous cough or high temperature. This will also help to protect others from infection

• use announcements in transport hubs to reinforce important messages, such as washing hands before and after travel, and what to do if unwell

This guidance may be updated in line with the changing situation. See full guidance here.
