Advertising Opportunities
Bus
The number of annual bus journeys outside London has increased. Over five million people in the South East notice
bus advertising each week, making it the most seen medium in town. New research (The Road to Enlightenment 2007) shows 86% of people can spontaneously recall a specific bus advert and 80% of consumers have responded to an advert they have seen on a bus. Buses create impact on the high street, give brand stature, act as a community notice board
and offer flexibility to target specific areas.
National Rail
South East train users are wealthy. 60% are between the ages 26-54 and 63% are in full time work – almost three quarters of these in professional occupations. Rail travellers make habitual journeys, with up to half of them travelling at least once a week on their local network. Advertise on First Capital Connect, First Great Western, Chiltern and GNER networks to reach your target audience on a regular basis.
London Underground
An unrivalled combination of engaging formats, a young, dynamic and upmarket audience, as well as time spent on
the network, makes the London Underground a unique advertising proposition. Providing a vital link between East London and the business centre of Bank and Canary Wharf, is the Docklands Light Railway (DLR). CBS Outdoor
provides a range of advertising opportunities across this network designed to reach the thriving local community,
as well as travellers to London City airport, the London Arena and ExCel. For advertisers wanting to reach the millions
of commuters, shoppers and tourists who regularly use these transport systems, the premium cross-track gallery
sites, bespoke creative opportunities, and eye-catching digital screens, offer a wide variety of effective solutions.
