This article is about the automated people mover. For all other uses, see Mini Metro.
MiniMetro is a family of cable-propelled automated people mover systems built by HTI Group. The vehicles run on either rails or an air cushion and have either a detachable grip (to the cable) or a fixed grip. Leitner has a test track for the vehicles in Vipiteno, Italy. The current maximum capacity of the system is around 8,000 passengers per hour. The latest system installed with the MiniMetro brand was the Miami International Airport eTrain in 2016.
Perugia People Mover
In Perugia, a 3,027-meter (9,931 ft; 1.881 mi) stretch with seven stations[1] opened in February 2008 to relieve the inner city of car traffic. It consists of more than 25 vehicles of 5 m (16 ft 4+7⁄8 in) each, with a capacity of 25 passengers and a speed of up to 25 kilometers (16 mi) per hour. The interval between successive vehicles is around 1.5 minutes. In 2013, the system carried 10,000 passengers per day.[2] Plans exist for a second line.
Pisa International Airport is connected to the Pisa Centrale – the Pisa's main railway station by Pisamover – yet another people mover under the MiniMetro trade mark.[10]
