Maglev Public Transport System

http://psipunk.com The pace the urban population and thus the number of vehicles are increasing on city roads, we will have to look for some alternative public transport system to keep up the pace of city life all across the world. Intended towards congested cities that we can foresee in next 10-15 years, the Maglev by British designer Chris Hanley is a public transport system that embarks a brand new way of traveling with new flair of roller coaster like experience, and that too with the safety of an average bus.

Based on the magnetic levitation (maglev), the new means of transportation keeps the city dwellers away from chaotic jams and run along its track, allowing an efficient as well as emission free ride. Suspending above the lanes or streets of the major cities, the new system will use skyscrapers as stations to board and deboard passengers. Rotating the central wing at 360°, thanks to its radical design, this public transport can maneuver around sharp corners, allowing it to move down narrow roads within the cities.

The wings of the system move along the magnetic track, while on the other hand, the two cabins remain completely still, making it safe enough for people to travel without seat belts. In addition, transport concept adds the elements of luxury and first class travel with leather seating and stainless steel framework. Moreover, the white glossy interior adds the sense of an enhanced environment, making the public transport more comfortable and desirable.
