An individual transportation system (10) includes a track system (12), including a primary track section (14), a switching track section (16) and loading/unloading section (18). The transportation system (10) additionally includes a plurality of carriages (20) supported by the track system (12), and a plurality of underslung passenger vehicles (22) each matably engageable with one of the carriages, and adapted to hold at least one passenger therein. The transportation system (10) further includes a storage facility (24) for storing the vehicles (22) when they are disengaged from the carriage, whereby a carriage and vehicle combination traveling on the primary track can be switched between primary track section (14) via an associated switching track section (16), and can be switched to the loading/unloading track (18), wherein the vehicle may be disengaged from carriage (20) and stored in the storage facility (24).

La présente invention concerne un système de transport individuel (10) comportant un système de voies (10) réunissant un segment de voie primaire (14), un segment de voie d'aiguillage (16) et un segment de chargement/déchargement (18). Le système de transport (10) comporte également une pluralité de chariots (20) reposant sur les voies du système (12) et une pluralité de véhicules suspendus de transport de passagers (22) s'associant par complémentarité chacun à l'un des chariots et conçus pour recevoir au moins un passager. Le système de transport (10) comprend en outre une installation de stockage (24) servant au stockage des véhicules (22) lorsqu'ils sont dissociés du chariot.
