- improving and increasing mobility, and reducing traffic congestion
- low visual impact
- no new footprint, no break for biodiversity
- no local air pollution and noise reduction
- reduction in electricity consumption per km traveled
- possibility of energy autonomy thanks to solar panels in the center of the tracks, or on the roof
- rapid installation of infrastructures, reduction of nuisances during works
- very competitive infrastructure and shuttle costs compared to all other means of mass land transport (2 to 5 times less)
