The authors discuss typical aspects of the track-guided high-speed traffic. Main aspects of the discussion are: - technical-physical features of the two transportation systems including ecological questions, - economical aspects and - questions of traffic politics, national economic and industry politics. Based on the publication of the European Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) directive, different national committees of the EU partners examine procedures and methods for traffic planning. The Transrapid hovers over a guideway which can be mounted either at-grade or elevated on slim columns. In contrast to roads and railroad tracks, the elevated guideway of the maglev system Transrapid allows crossing e. g. roads and railways without special bridges. Even for the at-grade guideway designs exist with clearance under the guideway beam to allow water to pass through and does therefore not impede the passage of amphibians and game. The Transrapid provides mobility and is unrivalled when it comes to land use, noise emission and ground transmitted vibrations. It is in early planning stages very difficult to make a detailed estimation of the construction costs of the guideway systems, but there are several representative technique and economic benefits in planning of the guideway, even in difficult and hilly terrain. The authors intend to show the superiority of this innovative, non-contact transportation system in contrast to high speed railway systems.
