• W615992644 abstract "In June of 2008, an Automated Small-Vehicle Transit (ASVT) application study commenced at a popular development on the western edge of the Kansas City, Kansas metropolitan area. The purpose of the project was to investigate the potential of Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) to solve transportation and mobility issues in a popular commercial development that encompasses retail and entertainment, commonly known as the Village West development. This development has extensive retail, restaurants, and entertainment, and borders on a major NASCAR race track and a former greyhound racing facility available for redevelopment. Village West also contains a minor league ball park, and a regional medical facility is located immediately to the east. As with most modern development, the dominant uses of land are parking lots and access roads to serve the attractions. The objective of this study was to investigate the viability of a PRT system to improve the inter-accessibility of existing and planned facilities, to serve as a feeder to any existing and planned transit systems, and to reduce the quantity of land dedicated to roads and parking lots, freeing up land for additional development. PRT is an ASVT system comprised of a fleet of completely autonomous small vehicles to deliver personalized, on-demand transport service. In short, the study concluded the following: (1) A PRT network that interconnected the retail and entertainment facilities was both technically and fiscally feasible, and would assist in transforming the area from a loose collection of day attractions into a cohesive, easily accessible, multi-day family destination. (2) Candidate PRT layouts linking existing facilities and planned facilities (such as the casino and water park) can also make remote parking facilities efficient and thus open existing surface parking to redevelopment. (3) PRT could assist with race-day operations (such as disability access and linking complimentary attractions), but volumes of NASCAR events generally exceed throughput capacities of affordable PRT systems. (4) A 26-station PRT system can effectively serve the development, and be available for expansion for either future development or extended as a public transit service. Such a system includes approximately 9.7 miles of guideway and a fleet of 150 transportation pods (T-Pods). The capital cost was estimated at $137M. (5) The estimated capital and operating costs are offset approximately 2-1/2 times by the benefits to users, society, increased land values, and increased economic activity. (6) Environmental impacts are positive, though a complete Environment Impact Statement would be required if public funds were used. (7) If the development had incorporated PRT from the outset, PRT could be more efficiently integrated into the development both in terms of cost and land use. Overall, the study indicated both financial and technical feasibility and considerable benefits to mobility, sustainability, and the environment. The research team presents these findings both as a case study for the Village West development as well as representative of benefits (and issues) of implementations of such technology elsewhere in the region." @default.
