The cross section in a RUF system is much smaller than in some comparable systems.

The Mini Metro under construction in Copenhagen takes up much more space than a RUF guideway.

The PRT2000 system (developed for Chicago) has a very massive guideway compared to RUF.

The old ALWEG monorail in Seattle is very popular, but it is a very massive concrete construction compared to a RUF rail.
