Cargo transportation

Components of the transport complexes

String rail transport overpass

A special prestressed structure requires much less material for construction, therefore uST Transport & Infrastructure Solutions are more affordable compared to other types of overpass transport

Rolling stock (uPod)

Unique aerodynamic qualities and an innovative steel-wheel-to-steel-track support system make unmanned uPods the most efficient type of rolling stock

Automated control system

The capability of independent routing, detection of threats, and real-time data exchange to adjust the operation of all uPods on the line

Infrastructure

Passenger stations and loading and unloading cargo terminals of Transport & Infrastructure Complexes blend in harmoniously with the urban and natural landscapes

How does it work?

1Carrying capacity – up to 50,000 passengers per hour
2Speed – up to 150 km/h

3Distance between adjacent supports is 50-2000 m or more
4Supporting towers are lightweight structures that receive a vertical load and ensure stability

5Anchoring structures receive a horizontal load from tension and are installed in increments of up to 10 km
6Impossibility of collision with foreign objects, pedestrians and animals owing to the elevation of the track structure above the ground

Advantages of uST

zero accident rate due to the relocation of cargo and passenger traffic to the “second level”, existence of an anti-derailment system, automation of control system and elimination of collisions with any objects on the route of uPods
fivefold safety margin of the overpass load-bearing structures
elimination of the negative impact of the human factor and the capability of all-weather round-the-clock operation thanks to automation of passenger and cargo transportation
minimization of epidemiological and terrorist threats due to optimized logistics and the absence of crowding in the cabins and passenger stations thanks to the high travel frequency of uPods and the small size of stations and rolling stock

high speed and performance of passenger and cargo transportation – up to 150 km/h and up to 50,000 passengers per hour, or 100 million tons/year
extensive capabilities of functional and architectural integration of uST complexes into the ecosystems of cities and suburbs, as well as on suburban routes
efficient transportation in mountains and across regions divided by wide water barriers
minimum land allotment for construction – the supports can be installed in increments of up to 2 kilometers
the possibility to erect complexes over residential and industrial buildings, as well as transport and energy utilities.
optimizing the number of vehicles on the line in real time, adjusting for cargo and passenger traffic so that rail electric cars are not overcrowded or empty
reduced energy consumption and vehicle maintenance costs
automation and exchange of digital data between all components of the complex and with the environment
integration of various by-products and technologies into the complex – power transmission lines and fiber-optic information cables, advertising space on supports and stations, as well as retail, residential, office and other spaces built into the complex, which compensates for the construction cost and reduces the cost recovery period for the entire Transport & Infrastructure Complex

low resource intensity of the string rail transport overpass, which is the most expensive and material-intensive part of any known transport system of overpass type
the possibility to reduce the material intensity and cost of overpasses compared to other types of overpass transport (monorail, urban railroad, air and maglev trains, surface subway, high-speed streetcars, cable cars) and the underground
reduction in operating expenses (OPEX) and return on investment (ROI) due to a relatively low cost of construction and low operating expenses (including through automation of the complex)
the possibility to set low fares for travel and cargo carriage

preservation of natural landscapes and the possibility to create green areas along the routes by minimizing land allotment for construction
minimum carbon footprint and noise level, including minimum consumption of the greenest electric energy
no obstacles to wildlife migration, as well as to the movement of surface and ground water
minimum resource intensity, including little earthwork
visual lightness of the structures – minimized intrusion into the surrounding urban and natural environment
