The main disadvantages of modern urban passenger transport are considered and ways of eliminating them through the introduction of intelligent transport systems based on unmanned vehicles that can move in automatic mode and to have the ability to split into two independent unmanned autonomous vehicles before the stopping point are considered. When a vehicle with divisible parts passes through a stopping point, its end part, in which passengers need this stop is collected, separates, and stops on the point while the front part moves further. This principle of organizing the movement of passenger vehicles provides more rational use of time and kinetic energy are spent on accelerating and braking the vehicle at a stop in comparison with the traditional approach, when the entire vehicle both with passengers leaving the vehicle at this stop, and with passengers who do not need this stop, brakes. This solution improves efficiency and reduces the energy consumption of this type of transport.
