So you want your concept to have something different? Here’s the deal, design it down to the minutest of details; for instance, the place where the concept is meant to be located. That’s supposedly the reasoning that has gone into this concept for a Public Transport System. It is meant exclusively for the roads of Prato, Italy and makes clear as much in its tag. The ‘Prato-Italy Public Transport’ is a concept designed by Jake Eadie. This system consists of a vehicle that is driven by a computer, powered by electricity and has six wheels. Supposedly meant for tourists, this vehicle drives leisurely at 5 to 15 km/h. A seating capacity of 6 people with space for another 4 to 5 to stand, the system has glass walls on all the four sides. No doubt the concept has been rendered beautifully but it has very limited applicability (having been designed for a particular location). Not to forget, it does have some green credentials going for it. Tourist corporations perhaps would be interested in Eadie’s vision. More images follow.
