Jacksonville Skyway, Monorail system in Jacksonville
Jacksonville Skyway is an automated people mover system in downtown Jacksonville that carries passengers along elevated tracks. The system connects multiple stations throughout the central business district and surrounding neighborhoods.
The Skyway opened in the 1980s to improve mobility in the downtown area. Since then, it has remained a core part of the city's transportation network and has undergone several modernizations.
The automated vehicles run at regular intervals throughout the day, offering quick transfers between central stations. Riders can easily board at any station and navigate the system without needing special knowledge or advance planning.
The system is fully driverless, with no operators on board, making it a distinctive transit experience. The glass-walled cars offer an unexpected vantage point for viewing the city skyline from above during the ride.
