A City for People: How uST Technologies Restore Space and Accessibility to Streets

25 February 2026

Modern cities are choking in the grip of transport collapse. Huge areas that could have been parks or pedestrian zones are given over to multi-lane highways and parking lots. However, the problem of urban planning is not limited to traffic jams and ecology—it is directly related to the accessibility of the environment. Traditional transport often creates physical barriers, making movement through the city an ordeal for millions of people. The solution to these problems lies in rethinking the very logic of urban movement by transitioning to the "second level."

Freeing the Ground Surface

The uST (Unitsky String Technologies) concept offers a radical shift: moving transport flows above the ground. This is not just a way to avoid traffic, but a tool for the de-automobilization of cities. When the main passenger flow moves to the second level, up to 70–80% of urban land is vacated.

Instead of asphalt deserts and noisy highways, parks, bike paths, and safe playgrounds appear. The city stops being a set of isolated "islands" between roads and turns into a unified space for living, where human comfort is prioritized over highway capacity. But for this "new city" to truly belong to everyone, the transport system must be absolutely inclusive.

Inclusivity as a Standard, Not an Add-on

Moving to the second level naturally forms a barrier-free environment. Unlike traditional subways or ground crossings, where ramps and lifts are often added as a forced measure, in uST transport and logistics complexes, accessibility is built into the architecture itself.

  1. "Level Floor" Principle: Stations are designed so that the boarding platform is at the same level as the floor of the vehicle. This eliminates the need to negotiate steps or gaps, which is critical for people with limited mobility, parents with strollers, and the elderly.

  2. Vertical Logistics: Access to stations is provided by high-speed elevators and escalators, making the path from the sidewalk to the seat in a unimobile seamless.

  3. Intelligent Control: An automated control system eliminates the "human factor." Doors open and close with perfect precision, and the smoothness of the ride—without sudden braking or vibration—ensures comfort for passengers with high sensitivity to movement.

The Ecology of Silence and Comfort

Returning the city to the people also means returning silence. String complexes operate almost silently, allowing stations to be integrated directly into residential areas or parks without disturbing acoustic comfort. uST electric transport produces no harmful emissions at the point of operation, which, combined with the greening of areas freed from cars, creates a healthy environment for all residents.

Conclusion: A New Philosophy of Urbanism

Combining the efficiency of the "second level" and the principles of universal design makes it possible to create a city that does not limit its residents. uST technologies prove: the city of the future is a space where transport is invisible, the air is clean, and any point on the route is equally accessible to every person, regardless of their physical capabilities.

This is the path from a "city for cars" to a "city for people," where innovation serves to eliminate barriers—both architectural and social.
