Considering the urban traffic factors of traffic volume, economies, populationand transport structure, the applicability of the modern streetcar, BRT, and the new trolley buseswere respectively discussed.4, The applicability was further analysed by the the planning of new transport system ofFoshan City. Combined the forecasting passenger volume,the energy,environment,andtransportation sharing rate were compared between present and further. The results showed thatwould not only save energy and reduce pollution,but also increase public transportation rateafter the use of new transportation systems.All in all, the new transport systems are of features, such as energy saving, environmentalprotection, economic, fast, comfortable, and etc.It has great prosperity of deveolpment inChina.Corresponding to different levels of the city, it will play a key transportation role, or as acomplement of rail transportation,extension of contact or transition.
