Development and deployment of automated transit has been the goal of a number of individuals and institutions for more than 40 years. To reduce congestion, many transit advocates simply believe that people should get out of their single occupancy vehicles (SOV) and use public transit. The characteristics of various automated transit or automated guideway transit (AGT) modes have to be evaluated and differentiated. This chapter presents a thorough description of the main components of automated transit. Given the current landscape of automated transit development, the specification focuses on technologies that are in operation stages, such as AGT. There are commonalities among various AGT, such as DLM, APM, and PRT technologies, even though certain unique features exist and separate one submode from another. There are basically six large categories of AGT components: vehicle, guide‐way, propulsion and system power, communication and control, station and platform, and maintenance and storage facilities.
