Open guideway personal rapid transit (PRT) systems are inherently more flexible than captive-bogey systems or elevated systems and, thus, lend themselves to an almost infinite variety of station configurations. This paper explores alternative station layouts for open-guideway PRT systems. The station layouts studied include configurations resulting from consideration of various combinations of such variables as, in-line station; off-line station; single bay; multiple bay; in-line bay; off-line bay; elevated; at grade; below grade; one-way guideway; two-way (shuttle) guideway; access from one side of transportation pod (T-Pod); access from both sides of T-Pod; in building; attached to building; elaborate; simplistic. The wide variety of stations presented provides potential solutions for PRT stations in many different applications.
