And of course, W3W is also proving to be very useful for getting static caravans delivered to where they need to be – particularly in those rural and off-grid locations.
For our teams, the w3w address is identified in the app map and shared with the delivery team. Then the team delivering the static caravan – or anything else for that matter – simply puts the three words into the app. The app shows the correct location and uses Google map info to help navigate the route.
By giving the driver the exact location for the caravan’s drop off point, the transporter has the knowledge and information needed to check the exact routes and review for any potential problems. Along with the Highways Agency’s Movement Order documentation, our drivers then have the ideal route to the exact location to deliver the caravan.
The three word address is also useful when it comes to our site surveys. Not only do we know the correct location of the address, but if there’s a hazard or something that has potential to limit access, then that will have its own what3words identifier so it can be precisely identified for our teams to be aware of.
