LEITNER has developed an intelligent solution for local public transport services – the MiniMetro^®, an automatic people mover for short and medium-distance operations. This APM is designed for use as the primary means of transport in towns and small cities and as a transit system for park+ride services or links to busy locations like shopping centers, universities or interchanges.

The LEITNER MiniMetro^® offers outstanding flexibility for integration within the urban infrastructure. The compact design of the cars means a minimum footprint for the system as a whole and optimum harmony with existing buildings and structures. The APM technology also handles demanding routing requirements, with such features as a 12% hill-climbing capability, and the availability of overhead guideways or underground sections.

The APM operates with its own guideway and is available in two versions – with the cars permanently attached to the haul rope or with cars that detach automatically.
