Due to the ongoing global trend of urbanization, demand for smart public transport is unbroken. However since a lot of effort is undertaken to improve individual transport with electric and autonomous cars, public mass transit appears to have made less progress in the recent past. This paper presents a novel urban mass transit system scalable from about 1,000 pphpd to more than 30,000 pphpd. It is based on a very slim pre-fabricated guideway system only 1.2 m in height with up to 36 m span. By matching guideway and vehicle technology a very cost efficient system was built. It is based completely on commercial of the shelf technology and uses magnetic levitation and linear motors to minimize noise and vibration levels. Its fully automated operation is demonstrated and tested for over 45,000 km (Oct 2017) on its test facility in Germany. The paper will explain the design principles and its improvements of current maglev technology.
