摘要

The PRT (Personal Rapid Transit) refers to a traffic system in which small vehicles automatically travel on a dedicated rail network or road network.It is a branch of monorail traffic and dedicated road traffic.It can change the situation of high energy consumption of traditional mountain transportation.It can reduce the amount of machinery used in the construction process to reduce carbon emissions.It is completely powered by electricity and reduces the friction of the cableway to reduce energy consumption.Its construction process uses small amount of traditional building materials such as concrete and steel.It has little damage to the ecological environment of the mountain,and can not damage the carbon sequestration ability of the plant community.It could serve as a means of transporting goods over long distance,reducing the need for big trucks and thus reducing the consumption of fossil fuels.
