The green road-based mode runs on roads and does not require a physical rail track. Examples are Green Bus System and Trackless Tram. The green road-based mode will use green energy sources: electricity is commonly used at the moment, and hydrogen is starting to become widely used. The Government will closely monitor the development of green transport technologies and select a suitable system in a timely manner.
