ABSTRACT:
The method and apparatus includes a single dedicated lane, multiple trams moving in both directions along the dedicated lane, multiple tram stop-boarding areas, each with an associated by-pass lane, disposed at intervals along the dedicated lane, a terrestrial guide which guides bidirectional steering assemble associated with the steerable wheels of the trams, and sensor and communication devices which coordinate the movement of the trams. The multiple trams are disposed along the route so there is always an odd number of tram stop-boarding areas between oppositely moving trams such that, as they approach each other, they can be coordinated to meet, without having to stop or wait, at a common tram stop-boarding area at substantially the same moment, the associated by-pass lane at each boarding area allowing the trams to then pass each other after passengers have disembarked and embarked.
