Southern California Interactive Megalopolis
A flexible
Magplane Service in Southern California would follow the rights
of way of the principal interstates to provide a high degree of
mobility for commuters. Most trip times within the Interactive Megalopolis
would be less than 30 minutes, even for commuters between Los Angeles
and San Diego. These commuting times will match the travel times
of subway systems in metropolitan areas but differ in one key respect:
speed and range beyond the commuting distance for the automobile.
Intermodal
service would be provided to airports, automobile parking facilities,
the subways in Los Angeles and other convenient transfer points.
This illustrative routing below demonstrates the ability of the
Magplane system to serve multiple destinations using off-line stations.
Extensions
to other important Southern California points, including Santa Barbara,
Lancaster/Palmdale, Palm Springs, and even Tijuana, at the Mexican
border are also possible with the Magplane system.
