I'm really puzzled by this. Isn't the main advantage of maglevs the lack of friction at high speeds? Maglevs have their space in the space of public transit solutions but urban transit doesn't seem to be it, to the best of my understanding.
Notice that this is too a vanity project, built for Expo 2005.
