  10. Alignment Alternatives 10

  11. SCMAGLEV Technical Requirements • Strict geometry is necessary to ensure highest practical speed can be attained by SCMAGLEV technology • Tunnel or viaduct alignments allow for increased safety and minimizes disruption • Shifting direction at top speed must be safely accomplished over a long and gradual geometry to ensure passenger comfort 1 1
