Well, here is an cheaper, greener and fast alternative to lighten their mind up a bit: the <em>straddling<\/em> bus, first exhibited on the 13th Beijing International High-tech Expo in May this year. In the near future, the model is to be put into pilot use in Beijing\u2019s Mentougou District (<a href=\"http:\/\/epaper.bjnews.com.cn\/html\/2010-05\/28\/content_105596.htm?div=-1\" target=\"_blank\">bjnews<\/a>). (The official site of the high-tech expo put it as 3D fast bus, which I think is more confusing, for now I\u2019ll just call it the straddling bus.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2010\/08\/11.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\u5b5011\" width=\"500\" height=\"198\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Proposed by Shenzhen Hashi Future Parking Equipment Co., Ltd, the model looks like a subway or light-rail train bestriding the road. It is 4-4.5 m high with two levels: passengers board on the upper level while other vehicles lower than 2 m can go through under. Powered by electricity and solar energy, the bus can speed up to 60 km\/h carrying 1200-1400 passengers at a time without blocking other vehicles\u2019 way. Also it costs about 500 million yuan to build the bus and a 40-km-long path for it, only 10% of building equivalent subway. It is said that the bus can reduce traffic jams by 20-30%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[youtube http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=iQxP_un15iQ&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=fr_FR] A big concern on top of urban transportation planner\u2019s mind is how to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[30,184],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/611"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=611"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/611\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4037,"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/611\/revisions\/4037"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=611"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=611"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/transportsdufutur.ademe.fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=611"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
