    The Sky Bus technology offered by Konkan Railway Corporation meets the above requirements,
    and re-defines the thinking and planning for urban transport being an Eco-friendly Mass urban
    transport system revolutionizing urban life. It is a patented technology developed for the new
    millennium and will cause a paradigm shift in urban transportation all over the world.

    Being an indigenous technology, it will place India on the forefront of the Rapid Transit Industry
    all over the world while providing the much needed alternative transportation solution, which is
    financially viable, environment friendly, synergizing well proven existing cutting edge
    technologies.

    Sky Bus is based on the concept of Sky Wheels presented in 1989 at the World Congress for
    Railway Research by Mr. B Rajaram, Managing Director of KRCL at Bologna University , Italy
    . The sky bus uses pre - fabricated latest construction technologies, which save time and money
    resulting in easy execution of the project in busy urban areas without disturbing the existing
    traffic pattern. All these structural engineering methods are well - proven. They have IT tools for
    economical communication and control. The 3 phase asynchronous AC electrical motor used for
    the propulsion of sky buses is also well proven and widely used abroad as well as in India .

    The most precious asset in growing urban areas is land. After its allocation for residential and
    commercial purposes hardly 6 % to a maximum of 18 % of land in cities forms road ways. The
    road ways once laid almost remain constant and indeed may be effectively reduced by
    uncontrolled encroachments. With the physical constraint on road area in the wake of increasing
    population, the intensity of loads and traffic volumes on the roads increase. As more and more
    2

    people from different habitats try to converge on to the central business district, the road are left
    with no capacity to improvise and handle the excess traffic, leading to congestion. Roads take
    one exactly to the point where one wants to go. But the capacity is limited in terms of passengers
    per hour that can be handled, considering speed limits and lane width limitations.
