what we need is a modern/light rail
like the cane-trains..!
lets face-it..they get a return..
simply from cane..season/usage
come in pre-fab..sections...
and carry-stuff..for a cheap infastructure-cost
they only need a reasonable grade/slope
and can generate..their own charge downhill
and glide the rest of the way
only the uphill bits need power
and really only need link up to the current/transport-hubs
computers could design it by guidence of population numbers and a contour map in seconds...
manufacturors could be building its sections..in days...
[fiberglass manufacturors could be making the personal[instant]..[personal/mobility-pods...in days]...outfitters fitting them-out in weeks...
biking has taught me the value of coasting-up hills
with minimul assist...they could glide over/most hills
[as i hear the..electric-bikes do wonderfully..on hills]
