This paper reviews how various newly-developed People Mover technologies have solved vistor circulation needs in many resort complexes in the United States and selected countries. This approach can be duplicated in many cities worldwide since the level of ridership in environments such as Las Vegas, Nevada frequently exceeds levels typically found in medium-sized transit systems worldwide. We focus particularly on existing proven technologies and specific installations including the following. Ropeway Horizontal Elevators (Mirage, Primadonna, Circus-Circus and Sun City Automated People Mover installations); Monorails (MGM Grand-Bally's Monorail and its expansion plans); Minirails (Prim Unitrak system); Beltways (Monte Carlo and Bellagio systems under construction); Miscellaneous.
