Abstract

An elevated railway-like transport system. The system includes a carrier system with rail-like or cable-like carrier elements that are fastened in the area of portal-like support elements, and includes self-propelled carriages, each of which includes a drive unit that cooperates with the carrier elements, and a gondola that is connected to the drive unit via a carrier device, preferably in the form of a carrying arm, and that is used for passenger transport and/or cargo transport. The carriages are movable independently of one another along the carrier elements, and a distance is formed between two successive carriages on the same carrier element.
