Abstract

Urban transit is defined as "Transportation facilities and carriage by track like railway where is constructed and operated in urban area" in Korean urban railway law. Several hundreds of urban transits are operated in the world, and Korea also has 19 lines 590km in several cities like Seoul, Busan etc. In this paper, we classify urban transits and describe the general characteristics of urban transit. And then review major technical issues and present the direction to technical progress.
