上海首条无人驾驶APM线路通过专家评审   2018-03-26

 

RESIDENTS in Minhang District suburban town of Pujiang who work downtown will soon find their daily commutes much easier.

Shanghai Metro’s Pujiang Line, the city’s first APM line, or Automated People Mover system, has passed trial runs and is on track to begin public service, possibly within weeks. No start date has been officially announced yet.

Automated people movers are driverless trains generally used for short-distance conveyance. According to the Shanghai Shentong Metro Group, the new 6.7-kilometer line has six elevated stations and will run from Huizhen Road Station in Pujiang Town to Shendu Highway Station, where passengers can transfer to Metro Line 8.
