US’ First Fully Autonomous Urban Railway System, Built by Hitachi Rail, Opens in Honolulu
Hitachi Rail announced today the completion and start of passenger service for the first phase of Honolulu’s ‘Skyline’ – the city’s new metro system and the first fully autonomous metro system in the United States1.
The state-of-the-art system will eliminate an estimated 40,000 car trips per day from the city’s congested streets and highways – equivalent to adding up to eight new freeway lanes
