American Maglev Technology (AMT) Proposal
American Maglev Technology (AMT) Proposal: Staff Review and Recommendation Approved by the MetroPlan Orlando Board at the meeting on December 12, 2012 American Maglev Technology (AMT) Proposal: Staff Review and Recommendation Background American Maglev Technology (AMT) has proposed to build, operate and maintain a privately- financed transit project in the Orlando metropolitan area with no public funding. The 40-mile project has an estimated capital cost of $800 million. The project is a fully automatic train system that is powered by magnetic levitation, or maglev technology. This technology lifts the vehicle from the guideway and provides directional motion. The first phase of the proposed system would operate between the Orange County Convention Center/International Drive area (utilizing the planned intermodal center) and Orlando International Airport with stops at The Florida Mall and the Sand Lake Road SunRail Station. Subsequent phases would include stations in the Lake Nona/Medical City area and along the Osceola Parkway corridor leading to Walt Disney World. AMT has spearheaded efforts thus far to advance the implementation of this project. However, the intention is to form a new publicly traded company called Florida EMMI, Inc. (Florida Environmental Mitigation and Mobility Initiative) that will design, build, finance, operate and maintain the project. At that point, AMT will become the company’s maglev technology provider. Florida EMMI, Inc. will bring together an array of strategic partners and more than 120 private companies, some of which are well-known in the transportation industry. The new company will be based here in Central Florida with an advisory board that includes some prominent individuals from our region. -
Transit Service Design Guidelines
Transit Service Design Guidelines Department of Rail and Public Transportation November 2008 Transit Service Design Guidelines Why were these guidelines for new transit service developed? In FY2008 alone, six communities in Virginia contacted the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation about starting new transit service in their community. They and many other communities throughout Virginia are interested in learning how new transit services can enhance travel choices and mobility and help to achieve other goals, such as quality of life, economic opportunity, and environmental quality. They have heard about or seen successful transit systems in other parts of the state, the nation, or the world, and wonder how similar systems might serve their communities. They need objective and understandable information about transit and whether it might be appropriate for them. These guidelines will help local governments, transit providers and citizens better understand the types of transit systems and services that are available to meet community and regional transportation needs. The guidelines also help the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) in making recommendations to the Commonwealth Transportation Board for transit investments, by 1) providing information on the types of systems or services that are best matched to community needs and local land use decisions, and 2) ensuring that resources are used effectively to achieve local, regional, and Commonwealth goals. Who were these guidelines developed for? These guidelines are intended for three different audiences: local governments, transit providers and citizens. Therefore, some will choose to read the entire document while others may only be interested in certain sections. -
