Smart card clocking up to 15 times faster than swipe systems

Solihull is celebrating that more than 1,000 jobs are being created at the Midlands Land Rover plant. The owners, the Jaguar Land Rover car company, said: “This is great news for Solihull.” In April the firm announced plans for 1,000 engineering jobs in the West Midlands region, with the majority of people already in position at Whitley and Gaydon. The group HQ is based in Warwickshire, with Land Rover vehicles manufactured in Solihull and at Halewood.
