A serial of good illustrating pictures showing the point of area demand:
Tip : Open all the below pictures in a row and surf along them as in a movie. The effect is most enlightening.
- If you imagine the PRT system elevated as well, the positive effect for the human and animate environment should be obvious.A: With a nice flow you get 1000 vehicles per lane
B: Each vehicle contains on average 1,2 person
C: The passengers in reality need a minimum of space
D: A PRT system needs little space, and passengers may read, work or simply enjoy the ride
E: The missing last picture with an elevated structure and restored nature below ... was finally made by Lars Endre KjølstadFrom: William A. Wilde (1996), The Simple, Compelling Case for PRT, International Conference on PRT and Other Emerging Transport Systems, Minneapolis. The text for each of the pictures is written by Jan Even Evensen, Norway
