Elevated bus for Bangladesh
The Chinese innovation of elevated bus is absolutely brilliant.
Considering the traffic congestion in mega cities in Bangladesh, I believe it will be perfect for our country. They can stop anywhere to pick-up and drop passengers without halting traffic. These buses are extremely large and can carry vast number of passengers at a time. Moving along specialised tracks—making it more like a train than a bus—it features an elevated midsection that glides over two lanes. Receiving electricity through the tracks, the vehicle travels at 40 km to 60 km (25 miles to 37 miles) per hour. It could be powered partly by solar energy. I think our government should seriously consider introducing it in our country.
