There are the following modes of transport:
» Maglev (in and between buildings)
» Roads and underground routes (for self-driving vehicles)
» Flying
In City One they chose to provide all of these modes using a standardised pod that can quickly swap its harness to switch between modes. This means users get a door to door (A-B) trip without changing vehicles, and without waiting for connections.
The pod and its harnesses for maglev, self-drive, and flying drone are shown below.

The pods also make nice little offices, as they have all the modern information and communications technology built in.
