Popis: Purpose: To show horizon to use new kind of public urban transport -autonomous tire tram of Phileas system without guide middle rail and catenarian, with magnetic-electronic steering system application – as more attractive for passengers than regular tram for urban transportations to free city lines from car jams. Methods: Analysis and generalization of work experience of leading enterprises, which exploit given kind of transport, of such countries as Netherlands (Eindhoven, Amsterdam), France (Due), Germany (Cologne), Turkey (Istanbul) as well as South Korea and so on, were held. The analysis of the most progressive constructions, applied in given vehicle, has been fulfilled. Results: Enterprise work experience has proved the feasibility to use tire tram wagons without guide rail for cities but revealed whole series of drawbacks, connected with the imperfections of the work of magnetic-electronic steering system that has whole row of irremovable flaws. Phileas rolling stock has demonstrated itself as insufficiently reliable in exploitation that has led to its gradual premature withdrawal and change with regular articulated buses, i.e. its conversion from a tram to usual BRT system. Practical significance: The use of tire tram autonomous system without guide rail and catenerian has good look-outs in cities but it’s necessary to apply more up-to-date element base for steering with the use of artificial intelligence technology. Phileas transport system has simply got ahead of its time. It’s worth not to refuse from the development of existing classical trams and light transport and the design of their new systems.
