“Transportation is going radical!” said Michael Tornabe. He was speaking about the current transport technologies innovation boom. The future of transport is transforming itself into vacuum trains, urban pods, magnetic levitation trains, driver less cars and more. These exciting changes are already in effect in some nations while others are working on their integration into already existing transportation systems.
“You can expect to save time on travel with these new options”, he stated. The potential of an ETT (Evacuated Tube Transport system) is to have maglev trains that will move at speeds of up to 4,039 miles per hour. That means that on one of these trains, you can get from Beijing to New York in only 2 hrs.
The maglev train has a high price tag when it comes to manufacture, but a train with a cheaper price tag is already out there. String transport system has a concept that includes electrical wires above ground. These wires will support each carriage and the speeds of 155 mph are expected.
Tubular rail is another available option that will cost 60% less than your regular train network. The train carries its own rails while its motors and wheels are elevated on rings. The train can move at a speed of 150 miles per hour. This system will not disrupt current infrastructure and is available even now.
“One of the best options you can find is one that can utilize current infrastructure”, said Tornabe. “That’s what makes the straddling bus so ideal.” The bus will simply travel above traffic on stilts. It will use small tracks that are positioned in between lanes. Bus stops will be elevated so people can get on and off. No disruption of infrastructure or traffic while remaining on our urban roads.
Other options include the human powered Shweeb, which uses bicycle pods, the solar bullet that looks to harness alternative energy and is hoping to debut in Arizona, and contactless systems as well. In S. Korea, a trackless train has already been developed. We can also hope to see driver less cars and the space elevator meant to launch you into orbit.
