BEIJING will start trial operation of a revolutionary "straddle bus" next year which can carry 1,400 passengers on an elevated deck, allowing other vehicles to pass underneath.
The municpal authorities yesterday approved a feasibilty report and ordered the construction of this gigantic bus and a nine-kilometer route along the west section of the Sixth Ring Road in Mengtougou District, where the trial run is going to take place next July, today's Beijing Times reported.
The bus's manufacturer, China South Locomotive & Rolling Stock Corporation said it would take three month to build a prototype, a four-meter-high elevated bus bestriding a road, allowing small vehicles to go through under.
If the trial proves successful, a 189km route will be built connecting Mengtougou with the Capital Airport, said Song Youzhou, the bus inventor at the Shenzhen Hashi Future Parking Equipment Company.
