The city-state's Bayaw Rapid Transit System is one of the most extensive rapid transit and urban rail transit systems in the world. The system spans across the majority of the city-state and has grown rapidly with government plans to develop a comprehensive rail network which has allowed it to become the backbone of public transport in Bayaw. In contrast to the overnight shutdown of most cities, the Bayaw Rapid Transit System operates 24 hours a day— albeit with longer intervals between trains during nighttime.
The three lines of the Bayaw Rapid Transit System collectively make up one of the longest fully automated metro networks in the world. The Kinara and Nayaku lines are operated by the BayLink Transport Holdings Company, while the Bilog and Airport Express lines are operated by Bayaw Rapid Transit Railway Corporation. Together, these two companies operate the majority of busses, trains, and taxis in the city which facilitates for the full integration of all modes of transport in the country.
In addition to internal mass rapid transit systems, Bayaw city is also the terminus of the major international high-speed rail line connecting the mainland Monic countries on a single rail line, which has helped to build up Bayaw as a major regional and international transport hub through its easy access as the terminus of a major international rail system.
