Intelligent people mover systems for local transport services.
This family of APM's are cable-propelled and operate on dedicated guideways for short and medium distance travel. This APM is designed for use as the primary means of transport in towns and small cities and as a transit system for park+ride services or links to busy locations like shopping centers, universities or interchanges.

The APM technology also handles demanding routing requirements, with such features as a 12% hill-climbing capability, and the availability of overhead guideways or underground sections.
