13 Meter Long Bus Plying On The Roads In China








The longest bus of the world namely "Youngman" with No. JNP6250G and 13 meter long is plying on the roads, in China, between Beijing and Hangzhou under "Bus Rapid Transit Service."Bus consisting of 3 compartments has been designed by the engineers of "Youngman Group Company". To connect the compartments with each other, two elastic walkways have been made. Bus is 82 feet long which is 39 feet longer than common buses.
It can take rounded turns like other buses due to elastic walkways. Bus can run on a speed of 50 km per hour. Bus having 5 gates has also been provided with the facility of Wheel chair for boarding the bus. Keeping the bus safe from passing traffic because of its length, Youngman company has constructed its separate driving track for the bus. It is interesting that in the bus having the capacity of 300 passengers, 4o seats have been provided, but the central wide space is left for the passengers to stand.
The Youngman Group Company had initiated the project of the mega bus during 2009 that reached to completion phase in 2012.
