Aeromovel is an innovative and sui generis urban transport mode developed in southern Brazil. The main difference between Aeromovel technology and the more conventional automated people movers (APM) resides on its exclusive pneumatic propulsion. On August 10, 2013 Aeromovel’s second commercial line was dedicated by the president of Brazil as one of the strategic infrastructure projects to host the upcoming 2014 FIFA World Cup matches and also as a flagship project to be replicated nationwide as a very reliable and low-cost alternative to traditional systems. This line is a 1.0 km shuttle service between Salgado Filho International Airport (Porto Alegre, Brazil) and the nearby local commuter rail station. This paper highlights the development of the Aeromovel technology, successful system deployments, current operational data, future applications and other pertinent information related to this highly innovated transportation technology.
