Clearing a safe path for commercial drones to support 91ÊÓƵÍøÖ·es and drive innovation.
Commercial drone corridor
Overcoming the challenge of flying drones beyond the visual line of sight, making the skies safe for drones to fly in unrestricted airspace.
Flight trials
In 2023/24, the Skyway team will carry out trials in the 265km-long drone corridor to show how 91ÊÓƵÍøÖ·, healthcare and emergency services can make the most of safe airspace.
New opportunities
Research is paving the way for the future of drone flight, safely opening up the skies and providing a framework for subsequent drone zones.
