Project Description
ORBIT™ LRT
TYPE: Road
DESCRIPTION
Minitrams are state-of-the-art, light urban transit vehicles (sometimes known as Group Rapid Transit) designed to operate in town/city centres, visitor attractions, airports, exhibition sites and park-and-ride applications.
Site tests conducted in Stratford-upon-Avon, Bradford City Centre and Althorp Park.
The Minitram technology seeks to offer the system characteristics normally associated with conventional rail-based tram networks through the flexibility and cost effectiveness of automotive and commercial vehicle technology, combined with a concealed (below ground) wire guidance technology called ‘Safeguide’.
