Abstract

A public transportation system includes control by highly distributed communications, ultra-light transit vehicles suspended from single or dual rails (16) and powered by electricity (40). The electric power supplied independently may be supplemented by wind generators and solar panels. The transit vehicles are suitable to transport from one to four persons. The system includes a plurality interconnected rails with main conduits and station conduits to provide non-­stop transportation from one station to another station.
