Hyperloop Proposed In AP

Swiss transportation technology company Swisspod and TuTr Hyperloop will collaborate to establish a robust framework for cooperation in the development and deployment of hyperloop technology within India. TuTr Hyperloop is a deep tech incubated startup at IIT Madras. It designs and develops ultra-high-speed ground transportation systems, among others. Both companies together with the governments of Switzerland and India signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), a release said on Friday. Jointly, Swisspod and TuTr Hyperloop will spearhead the design and funding of a testing centre in India that will serve as a hub for refining hyperloop technology, facilitating various experiments and validating its feasibility in real-world conditions. The two companies will pool their expertise and resources to accelerate research, testing, and innovation in the field, ensuring the safe, efficient, and reliable progression of hyperloop systems. They also plan to "explore and assess potential ..

BS ReporterHyderabad, 7 May: US-based Hyperloop Transportation Technologies(HTT) today presented a pre-feasibility route study to Andhra Pradesh officials proposing a Hyperloop transport system with a length of 700-800 kms from Anantapur in the south to the port town of Visakhapatnam in the north of the state while connecting the new capital Amaravati in the center.The company suggested execution in three phases with the initial phase running into 5-10 km straight section at Amaravati to demonstrate the working and benefits of the most modern ground transportation system. It says the northern and the southern sections can be built in two phases or can be undertaken simultaneously.Hyperloop is based on a concept in which a passenger capsule moves in a vacuum tube at high speeds. Hyperloop-based system was yet to be implemented anywhere in the world on a commercial scale. Last year AP chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu asked HTT to get back with a workable plan to execute the project ...
