The Future (of bus travel) is almost here

Yahoo is today carrying a story of a futuristic type buss that will allow cars to travel under it as it takes up two lanes of traffic. Not only is it hoped that this will revolutionise traffic management but it is also has the potential to be green as it can run on electricity. Some kinks still need to be worked out though like can a bus turn without causing havoc to the traffic below and behind it?

If all this sound far too futuristic a trial along 115 miles of road in Beijing is expected to be underway in 2011.
