Engineers in China, the
world's most populated country, have come up with a way to overcome the problem
of getting around in traffic which can be quite frustrating
Designs for a new elevated bus
has been unveiled at a tech expo in China, which will apparently be able to
carry 1,200 passengers over the top of cars and let traffic to pass underneath
it.The scale model of the
'Transit Elevated Bus' was demonstrated this week at the 19th China Beijing
International High-Tech Expo.
The idea is that passengers
sit far above other vehicles on the road, allowing cars to pass underneath.
In a model of the vehicle, it
appears to run on a set of fixed rails embedded on the road.Engineers hope the design will
increase the availability of the road space, and cause fewer traffic jams than
regular buses.It is also expected to save
costs compared to other public transport options.Watch the brief demonstration here:
