Personal rapid transit (PRT) - a future trend?

[keoadmin]

Click here (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7430514912605905740&q=transit) to see a video on how Microsoft is considering a personal rapid transit (PRT) for its campus in Redmond, Washington. Could this type of system work well on along our arterial roadways here in Kingston?

I'm sure it would be fabulous. You got the money?

By the way, I wonder if they tried to make that animated video as creepy as possible or if it was just a happy accident. :P

It would be fascinating to see a truly comprehensive and transparent cost/benefit analysis showing the long-term cost of a more densely developed Kingston, with vastly improved public transit, vs. the current system of heavily subsidized suburban roads and the related costs of sprawl infrastructure.
