AUTOMATED PEOPLE MOVERS. PAPERS PRESENTED AT THE SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON AUTOMATED PEOPLE MOVERS, MARCH 13-15, 1989, MIAMI

E.S. Neumann discusses the marketability of advanced transit technology. W. Kulash proposes in his paper that the affordability of people mover systems in suburban activity centres is determined by the intensity and characteristics of the land use in the centre. These characteristics, in turn, are determined by decisions largely within the control of the individual site owners. The paper identifies the land use decisions that are most important to the financial feasibility of people movers and suggests guidelnes for planning land use in suburban activity centres in a manner that enhances people mover feasibility.
