-The '''Macau Light Transit System''' is a proposed mass transit system for the former [[Portugal|Portuguese]] [[Portuguese Empire|colony]] of [[Macau]] (now [[Special Administrative Region]] of the [[People's Republic of China]]). The LRT will serve the [[Macau Peninsula]], [[Taipa]] island, [[Cotai]] reclamation area and [[Macau International Airport]].

-The Macau LRT was first proposed in 2003, but final go ahead was not given until a public announcement by the [[Government of Macau]] was made in October [[2006]]. The line will provide better transportation options between the mainland portion of Macau with Cotai and Taipa and release pressure on the roads and bridges to the islands. It will be Macau's first rapid transit line.  (Note: The LRT network image shown is outdated.  The latest information can be obtained at http://www.git.gov.mo)

+[[af:Depressie]]
-The proposed LRT system will be [[driverless]] and utilize a [[rubber-tyred metro|rubber-tyred]] system, similar to the [[Light Rapid Transit (Singapore)|Singapore Light Rapid Transit]]. The Phase I line will run along [[elevated]] guideways, ensuring a dedicated right-of-way separated from road traffic.

+[[pl:Depresja]]
-The estimated cost for the first phase of construction (of 23 stations) will be [[Macanese pataca|MOP$]]4.2 billion (about [[United States dollar|USD$]]523 million). This portion of the project will be paid and financed by the Government of Macau as a part of their comprehensive public transportation project.

-The LRT will use automated guided vehicles running on concrete track. No manufacturer has been identified or selected as of yet.
+[[uk:Депресія]]
-Based on the proposal, the cars will be arranged in a 4-[[Railroad car|car]]s set with passenger capacity of about 400 passengers. Peak ridership is predicted to be about at 8,800 passengers per hour per direction.
-==Facilities==
-TBD
-==Lines==
-The LRT network will consist of at least two phases:
-*'''Phase I Line'''<br />The line will connect major entry-exit points at the Macao Peninsula and the Taipa Island, the distribution of residents and working population, the tourist demand. The line will utilize reserved space in the lower deck of the [[Ponte de Sai Van]] (Sai Van Bridge) to connect to theTaipa island.
-There will be 15 stations on Macau and 7 on Taipa.
-*'''Phase II Line'''<br />The line will connect the Barrier gate to A-Ma Temple passing through the inner harbour area, and eventually form a loop on the Macao peninsula.
-==Stations==
-The Phase I Macau LRT will have 23 stations. The names or exact locations of stations will be announced in the near future.
-==Fares and ticketing==
-No details on fare type and collection has been provided by the government. It will likely use smart card technology.
