PRT at Airports
At (air)ports there are several passenger flows for which the individual nature and network typology of a PRT system are very well suited. Typically PRT applications will be located at large or medium hub primary airports.
As a local transit system 2getthere’s CyberCab PRT system can interconnect prime locations and facilities (such as car parks, hotels and offices) to the arrival and departure terminals. An efficient (loop) network typology ensures short, direct connections optimizing service to airline passengers. Integration of the network in the existing spatial planning is accommodated by the small footprint requirement of the system.
The PRT system is also well suited as a connection between (long term) parking and the terminal(s) as travelers tend to arrive at the parking individually or in small groups. Larger, group oriented passenger flows can also be accommodated by the PRT system, but especially when sharing the same destination a Group Rapid Transit system could be a sensible alternative.
