Privacy
ULTra provides a fully personal, secure and private service; passengers have exclusive use of their vehicles and travel only with chosen companions. Each journey remains private until the destination is reached, although passengers may contact the system controller at any time and the controller can talk to the passengers, see them via onboard CCTV, and respond to any concerns immediately.
The ULTra vehicle is optimized to provide private trips for families and other groups. Sharing larger vehicles with strangers is not only unattractive to the users, but leads to longer trip times and unnecessary operational complexity. The system can readily be arranged to offer fully private vehicles and/or fully private stations not accessible to other users, if desired.
The privacy of the ULTra vehicle is complemented by the personal safety and security offered during the whole passenger experience.
