[sustran] PRT is back again.

[Eric Britton]

I’ll like to invite comment on this project. It is not the first time around
for PRT. Forty years later and they are still hammering at the door. Will it
open this time? 

 

Share your thoughts on that via the New Mobility Café – posting to
NewMobilityCafe at yahoogroups.com.

The CityMobil project 

  _____  

Towards advanced transport for the urban environment 

CityMobil is a major five-year, EU co-funded research and development
project that is examining the implications of integrating automated
transport systems into the urban environment. Three real-life pilot projects
are the basis of the investigations which are the ULTra system at Heathrow,
the Cybercar at the new Rome Exhibition Centre and the Hi-Tech bus in
Castellón. In addition to the 3 demonstrations, a series of showcases and
small-scale demonstrations are being held at different cities aroud Europe. 

More information on CityMobil at www.citymobil-project.eu

The midterm workshop of the CityMobil project will be an integral part of
the international conference on personal rapid transit, LHR at PRT, which will
provide insight to the ULTra system at London's Heathrow Airport and present
developments elsewhere in Europe. Delegates will also learn about other
types of automated transport systems during the CityMobil session along with
presentations on CityMobil's main research activities. 


The PRT system at Heathrow 

This year the world's first Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) system will open at
London's Heathrow Airport (LHR). The system will comprise some 4 km of track
and will link one station in terminal 5 to 2 alternative stations on the
business carpark. This simple application will later be expanded to include
30 km of track, 350 vehicles and 50 stations serving terminals 1, 2, 3 and 5
and linking them to office blocks and hotels in the vicinity of the airport.

If you are interested in advanced transport systems for the urban
environment, come and join us at PRT at LHR
