BMW's 'Hyperloop' for BIKES: Futuristic concept envisions giant tubes in the sky that keep cyclists away from traffic and pollution
BMW has created plans for two routes in Shanghai making up 12 miles (20km) of cycleways
Elevated paths could encourage commuters to safely whip around cities on e-bikes and electric scooters
BMW compares this concept to Elon Musk's Hyperloop, claiming it could help reduce congestion, pollution
BMW의 하이퍼루프 자전거길
미래형 컨셉은 교통 정체와 공해를 피하기 위해서 공중에 대형튜브를 설치하는 것
BMW는 중국 상하이에 2개의 길이 20km짜리 대형 자전거길 설치를 계획하고 있다.
고가로 된 자전거길 통로는 통근자들이 전기자전거와 전기스쿠터를 타고 안전하게
다닐 수 있게 해줄 것이다.
BMW는 이 개념을 일론 머스크의 하이퍼루프에 비교하고 있다.

For most people, living in big cities cycling on busy roads can be a treacherous way to get around.
To try and alleviate this problem, BMW has released a futuristic vision of how elevated tubes could encourage commuters to safely travel around cities on e-bikes and electric scooters.
BMW has released a futuristic vision of how elevated cycleways could encourage commuters to safely whip around cities in Shanghai. Lanes would be accessed by a ramp with barriers to stop bikes entering if the pathways have become to busy
The company compares this concept to Elon Musk's Hyperloop, claiming it could help reduce congestion, pollution and mean two-wheeled commuters get to work much faster.
The project, which BMW calls its concept Vision E3 Way, is the result of collaboration with Shanghai's Tongji University. The 'E3' stands for elevated, electric, and efficient.
The company has created plans for two routes in Shanghai together making up more than 12 miles (20 kilometres) of cycleways.

As well as being connected to the regular road network, the route will be connected to underground stations, other traffic hubs, and even shopping malls.
Lanes would be accessed by a ramp with barriers to stop bikes entering if the pathways have become to busy.
'It's our Hyperloop,' Markus Seidel, head of the BMW Technology Office China said.
'It works by simply creating space for two-wheel zero-emissions traffic,' he said.
'In China, more than a billion people will be living in cities by 2050. The country will become the global incubator for numerous mobility innovations such as the BMW Vision E 3 Way',

The project is 'open-source' and would require investment from lots of different sources but the German car manufacturer hopes to collect money from 20 patents associated with the project.
Cycleways would be constructed using a modular system where sections are built off-site one by one and then lifted into place, writes Auto News.
