The infrastructure blog - the MRTS

So here’s what the MRTS is like currently:

There are main roads, and highways.

Each segment of straight road is identified.  If the stretch of straight road is really long, then it is segmented into parts.

In each segment-part, in the middle of the road, the MRTS columns’ foundations are dug, the columns built and then the MRTS rails placed on top of it.

There are steps from the pavement on each side inclined up and then straight across, to the MRTS stop.  (Just like an overhead bridge – if the road is too narrow for this, then probably there shouldn’t be an MRTS on it, and some terrain way of travel is used – Maybe rickshaws, maybe horse-drawn carriages, maybe auto-s, maybe cabs, maybe a bus, or maybe a tram….).

There is a platform all the way across from the start of the MRTS rail to the end of that MRTS rail.  Let the stairways connect now and then.  Then if one gets on the platform, and can’t wait, or wants to walk, one always has a choice….

So it becomes like a big caterpillar over the road.  In the center is the MRTS rail, on both sides of it is the platform place, and leading on and off each 50 metres are the connecting stairs….

Underneath are the built-in spaces, use them for shops and for places, to sit and unwind, to park your cars, your vehicles, your bikes, your skates (you could carry those, or check them in) and your walking-shoes (if you walked a while from your place to the MRTS rail, and are getting ready to go to work or play…, and need to wear a different pair of footwear…).

So one who wishes to use the MRTS, climbs up the inclined-stairway, walks across and waits in the MRTS stop.  The MRTS bus arrives, and one gets on it.  Sits, or stands, as one desires.  The MRTS bus pulls out, and travels a while, about 50 metres or so.  Then it stops again.  One gets off, or one stays on, others get on or get off, and the MRTS bus pulls out again.  Goes another 50 metres and stops again.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres and it stops again.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres and it stops again.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres and it stops again.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres and it stops again.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres and it stops again.  People get on and off, and that’s the end of the track.  And then the MRTS bus starts back to it’s starting point.  It goes 50 metres, and it stops.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres, and then it stops.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.   50 metres, and its stops.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres, and it stops.  People get on and off, and the MRTS bus is off again.  Another 50 metres, and it stops.  People get on and off, and we have reached the starting point.  Time to do it all again.  And the MRTS bus goes up and down, up and down, up and down.  The MRTS bus goes up and down, up and down, up and down, all day long…..

One MRTS bus per segment-part….

So if people want to travel a few kilometres?  They need a road-map, with the segments of MRTS clearly defined.  So one can go 300 metres at a stretch, then one can get down and stretch one’s legs.  (Very useful, to keep comfortable).  Then one can either walk to the next MRTS segment-part, or hire an auto, a car or a cab, a rickshaw, a horse-drawn carriage or a tram (for the medium-width roads..) ….
