NEXTG LADDER TRACK

The Low Cost Sustainable Transport System (LCSTS) is designed to provide a rail solution to public transportation for cities and other locations where transport planning has not been cost effective. It is designed in a way that allows for simple, modular construction of a comparative small basic structure that meets all current standards,while taking advantage of new and sustainable technologies.

The NextG Ladder Track is stronger than a traditional track; it has a longer life span and improves vibration mitigation. These benefits combine to provide the first true advancement in ladder track technology. The elevated ladder track addresses vibration mitigation in a way that has previously only been seen in slab and ballastless track systems; it dampens the vibration through the beam, which not only protects the supporting beam but also addresses differential settlement.
