Can This Unique Transit Solution Help Connect Our Sprawling Cities?

This week we speak with Jeral Poskey from Swyft Cities about their Whoosh transit system. This system may look like a gondola (which is what peaked our interest), but in fact is a point to point system that allows vehicles to travel on them, heading to different destinations along the system. It may seem unnecessary at first glance, but we feel like this system really does have a place serving areas that are otherwise difficult to serve. Think sprawling suburbs, end of the line connections and more! Jeral and his team hope to have the first Woosh system operational in 2027! What do you think? Can you see this working well in parts of your city or town? Do you have more questions for Jeral?
