The HighRoad system's urban / suburban vehicle model employs the use of existing components and is designed to combat the specific weaknesses of other systems. With design focused squarely on the service rendered to the individual, HighRoad provides rapid travel and minimal in-station wait time for the rider. Because each vehicle is independently propelled, the number of vehicles "trained" together is limited only by the station size desired. However, smaller stations allow for easier integration into neighborhood shopping centers, with no more square footage used than a typical local bank branch. While maintaining overall people-moving capacity needed by most communities, it uses mostly pre-existing rights-of-way, computer technology, and simplicity of design to minimize costs. As a result, communities can afford to serve a greater area and more accessibility for individuals. Passengers will experience fast, frequent and consistent service, riding in comfort at an affordable price.
