Air Track

The Urban Track Air Track is constructed at a height of seven meters or an appropriate height for the situation. The transport capacity of one lane on the air track is 3,600 passengers per hour, equating to 48,000 passengers per day. The parallel system transports packages, and during the journey, passengers can enjoy a free 5G network.

Automation and artificial intelligence control the capsules on the air track, and the system’s functionality is monitored by an operator. The greatest benefit of the air track comes from the network formed by the air tracks, eliminating the need for switches between routes. This increases transport capacity and reduces travel time, as multiple different routes can be chosen to reach the destination.

In many city centers, the ground is so congested that attention needs to be directed upward towards a new layer of modern logistics. Infrastructure located high above the ground frees up ground space for other uses, such as green areas, walkways, and bike paths. With a decrease in personal car use, it also helps alleviate traffic congestion, avoid accidents, and reduce air pollution, dust, and noise.

The construction costs of the air track are a fraction of traditional competing ground-level solutions. The estimated cost per kilometer for the air track is around 1.5–2 million euros, whereas the tramway’s cost per kilometer is approximately 10–23 million euros. For instance, crossing a river does not impact the cost of the air track.

The air track can find new routes in a new layer to places where current infrastructure solutions cannot reach. It can be relocated and rerouted much more flexibly than existing transportation solutions, as the air track’s pillars and foundations are lightweight and take up little space.

The air track is designed to withstand both local climate conditions and the challenges brought by a changing climate. Unlike road infrastructure, the air track requires very little maintenance. The entire system is modular, and the parts are designed to be easily replaced as needed.
