Sky Bus
INTRODUCTION
The new technological solution, in terms of Sky Bus Metro is based on theconcept of Sky Wheels presented in 1989 at World Congress for Railway Research. The technologies used are: Well proven rail guided bogie system commonly used for normal railway system. Linear Induction Motor Technology or3 phase AC asynchronous electrical motive units– well proven and widely adopted abroad as well as in India. Light weight coaches called `Sky Buses’ which are suspended from bogies and travel below rail guides, the physics of which can be engineered very easily – shells of coaches and suspension links well proven. Prefabricated latest construction technologies, which save time and money resulting in easy execution of the project in busy urban areas without disturbing the existing traffic pattern. These structural engineering methods are well proven which do not have any project execution risk attached.
