Splendid! China has built an elevated bus that travels above car traffic


China has built the first ever concept  of Chinese train/bus hybrid  that can travel over cars (and over traffic). The Transit Elevated Bus (TEB)  has  had its first road testing . It happened in Qinhuangdao City  and consisted of a brake and power consumption test.

The whole thing is powered by electricity, is about 72 feet long and 25 feet wide which  can span multiple lanes of traffic and can carry 300 passengers, when it’s actually launched and operating, it should hit max speeds of around 40 miles per hour, making it a pretty speedy mode of public transportation.
