What it is
Landscape paper at platform level, large enough to read from across the platform without buying cross-track scale. It sits in platforms and concourses, bought in 2 weeks bursts running Monday to Sunday. Artwork is supplied to the specification above and goes through copy clearance before the on-air date.
Why advertisers use it
Audiences are standing still with nothing else to read. Typical exposure is 2 minutes 14 seconds, which is why the format works hardest for brand awareness.
Cost
£2,000 per panel, per 2 weeks. Rates move with zone, station footfall and trading period: January and August are the softest, the Christmas run-in the hardest. Production is quoted separately.
Booking and lead time
Six to eight weeks ahead is the sweet spot: it protects both the price and the quality of the sites you get. Station dominations and peak trading periods need longer. Copy clearance sits ahead of the on-air date, so leave room for it in the schedule.
Stations to consider
Per site inventory has not been audited yet, so these are the highest footfall stations rather than a confirmed availability list.
