BTW, nicely done artwork. What programs did you use to create this beautiful world? I'm guessing you used photoshop for some of the Maps to give that dreamy water-color feel.  But the intergration is very seamless. Well done!

If a city or country puts his weight behind a project like this , I believe individuals should buy their own vehicle (that sense of independence) It should be equipped with batteries to get from the closest rail to your house at low speed (golf cart drive train or similar)you would receive your account for the amount of travelling you did , which would be less than petrol but would eventually pay for the infrastructure , taxes on normal cars should be higher to help pay for the PRT.

HankMeyer: The most likely scenario will be that the system will be installed and operated by a private firm (for profit). Part of the power may be generated from solar, but I imagine most of it will come from current power plants. Indeed, new/cleaner sources of electricity will have to be developed for a full-blown PRT system.

HankMeyer: A centralized computer will likely control traffic. I don't imagine ID will be required; debit/credit cards or a pre-arranged account could be used for payment. Damage to one part of the system should not disable the entire system; traffic could be re-routed.

PRT can be built by a private company for a profit. Other public transport methods require heavy gov. subsidies.

Not really, especially compared to the heavy rail system that have been/currently being built.

Westogmoney: PRT is significantly cheaper per mile than subway, light rail, and new highway construction. Also, it can be installed more quickly; prefabricated segments of guideway can be lifted into place very quickly. Also, stations can be modular, and be built to fit in a variety of locations.
