What is the speed of the Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) in kilometers per hour?
1 Answers
ART has a speed of 70 kilometers per hour. ART Train: The Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) system, abbreviated as ART train, is a new type of transportation vehicle designed by China Railway Siyuan Survey and Design Group Co., Ltd. and developed by CRRC Zhuzhou Institute Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "CRRC Zhuzhou Institute"). It has a designed maximum speed of 70 kilometers per hour. However, since it does not rely on steel rails for operation, the construction cycle of a single operation line only takes one year, enabling rapid deployment. Types: The ART train also features zero emissions and no pollution, similar to light rail and subway systems, and supports multiple power supply methods. By adopting the flexible marshalling mode of high-speed trains, the ART train can adjust its capacity according to changes in passenger flow. For example, with a standard 3-car marshalling, the train can carry over 300 passengers, and with a 5-car marshalling, it can carry over 500 passengers. This effectively addresses the limitation of small passenger capacity in ordinary buses and significantly improves transportation capacity.
