The futuristic Jetsons-era technology of monorail systems isn't just for Disney nostalgia or Simpsons' parodies. Monorails are actually viable urban transit alternatives to light rail and subways.
"Las Vegas is spending $650 million on a seven-mile monorail designed to ferry gamblers from one end of the Strip to the other. On Election Day, Seattle voters will decide yea or nay on a proposed $1.7 billion, 14-mile expansion of that city's one-mile monorail, a leftover from the 1962 World's Fair. And in northern Delaware, transit planners are championing a 15-mile monorail as the best solution for alleviating the region's traffic jams and worsening air quality."
