Oribitram is the future of mass transportation in Africa and will revolutionize the way millions of people, live, work and travel. Oribitram is a leap in transportation for Africa and will provide mobility, opening up economic opportunities for all.

Today, Africa transportation infrastructure is limited and inefficient. With low income and poor infrastructure, mobility is a major stumbling block for a country’s economic development.

Buses are widely used but are extremely overcrowded and cause major traffic congestion. Traffic jams also result in considerable loss of time and productivity. Orbitram is an elevated system which provides an alternative transportation solution which relieves congestion off the roads and provide a safe and comfortable way to travel.

Affordable travel

On average people spend 35% of their income on travel. Orbritram is affordable for people to use because the system is low cost to build, operate and easy to maintain. Orbitram is low cost because of its modularity using ultralight space age materials providing the lowest passenger-to-weight ratio of any transportation system ever.

Environmentally Friendly

Another clear benefit of Orbitram is that it is environmentally friendly. Pollution is dramatically reduced because it is based on hybrid-electric solar power.

Orbitram not only generates its own power but goes even further.  OrbiTracks produce 400 kilowatts of solar per kilometer - enough to run passing Orbitrams and provide excess energy for 100-200 basic homes.

Energy Efficient

Orbitram’s highly efficient electric motors are super fast and quiet because OrbiTracks are made from high impact carbon fiber.  These materials are used in sports equipment and aviation.  The “hugger wheel” assemblies are made from ballistic polyaramid for super quiet operation and extensive durability.

Orbitram is coming to Africa and bringing opportunities for Governments, Organizations, Investors across many sectors to participate in this revolutionary venture.
