Advertising at railway terminals

Advertising at railway terminals is a highly effective form of transit advertising and a powerful marketing communication tool, thanks to the extensive railway network. Every day, a large number of people pass through railway terminals. This audience is particularly receptive to advertising, as the waiting time associated with travel often leads them to engage with creative advertisements to alleviate boredom. 

We advertise at 95 terminals, reaching a total of 6 million passengers per month (long haul and suburban).
