Hasta La Ideas

If you live in a congested urban area, you’re no stranger to firetrucks and ambulances screwing up traffic as they scramble to their destinations. It’s just not an efficient system! Designed as a modern addition to older cities without traffic infrastructure, this firefighting maglev system places emergency personnel and equipment high above the narrow, crowded streets in order to navigate to fire situations faster!

Forget what you know about traditional firefighting. With this rescue monorail, crew and equipment can be delivered in a fraction of the time it takes for traditional firetrucks to arrive at the scene. Smaller individual pods are released upon arrival and operated by firefighters during the last mile to deliver concentrated extinguishing power.

Best of all, it’s much quieter and less disturbing than giant firetrucks and sirens rumbling down the street!
