A model of a Transit Elevated Bus (TEB) debuted at the ongoing 19th China Beijing International High-Tech Expo. TEB is a purely homegrown invention of China. Its passenger compartment rises far above other vehicles on the road, allowing cars to pass underneath, which will largely increase the utilization of road space. The first test of such bus is planned to start trail operation in Qinhuangdao City, north China`s Hebei Province, in the second half of 2016.
