I have seen these going up in Toronto. What do you mean by cheaper?
Maintenance of vehicle? Doubt it. Especially if its an electric train.
Land acquisition for lane? Doubt it. The dedicated lanes also have full station stops.
Energy usage? Doubt it. Electric trains dont have round trip energy loss in batteries.
Operations? Doubt it. Its an electric train is usually autonomous.
Flexibility? Ya its far more flexible than a train that requires rails. Also you can reroute buses.
