CONCLUSIONFrom the studies and examples that have been discussed in this seminar evaluating about all the monorails among the whole world. Its application only provides the development

to various sectors of industries not only to the civil engineering but also to the mechanical and electrical

engineering fields. And hence by the development of these modified types of monorails the not only the transportation facilities are succeeded to the development but also the eco

friendliness, ie the hazards to the nature by these monorails are the minimum when compared the ordinary

transport system of our today’s life. The small disadvantage is that it is little bit costly for its implementation in a

sudden manner, so by gradual development these can be overcome and one day it will become one of the best

transportation services ever on the universe.
