An elevated railway track is under test in Guang’an City, Southwest China’s Sichuan Province. The 8.49-kilometer-long line can transport up to 30,000 people per hour at a maximum speed of 80 kilometers an hour. The system is an effective way to address traffic jams in small and medium-sized cities. The elevated railway track is easier and quicker to build, at a cost of one fourth of building a subway line.
