Greater Lisbon Area, Portugal - July 2009, SATU Oeiras
Running from Paço dos Arcos Stations on the Linha da Cascais from Lisbon to Cascais, SATU is a cable pulled driverless automated VAL type system that links the station with the Oeiras Park Shopping Centre.
Why this blog?
I have always been interested in urban transport, be it local rail, metro, underground, light rail, bus, u-bahn, s-bahn or whatever the technology.
Our need to move large number of people in urban and metro areas quickly, in comfort and in an environmentally friendly manner has given rise to an inreasingly wide gamut of systems and technologies.
As I visit different places over he next few years I will try to post comments and photos of systems of interest.
