The Chiang Kai-Shek (CKS) International Airport serves as one of the busiest airports in the region. Currently, CKS International Airport development program is underway and it includes construction of a new passenger terminal to accommodate the increasing passenger demand. An Automated People Mover (APM) system connecting this new passenger terminal and the existing terminal is one of the major projects in the overall airport development program. The APM system is located in both of restricted and non-restricted areas and transports passengers travelling between, terminals with shuttle operation. In the future, the APM is planned to loop type route alignment and transport passengers travelling among three terminals. Niigata was selected as the supplier of the APM system with its NTS system technology. This paper provides an introduction to the APM system and its unique design features.
