In the future will the city people move by ... cable cars?

The transport of people by cable car system only appears in tourist areas but in fact, according to calculations, in urban scale, it is much superior to public transport. Other plus!

In urban areas with high population density, transport infrastructure will be forced to expand vertically, divided into many levels, because only traditional roads on the ground can hardly meet the number of vehicles. Huge lathe.

Through the reality in many countries around the world, we can easily list a few types of vehicles that characterize the new transport layers such as the subway, the elevated railway system .

However, in the near future, these types of vehicles which are being used very popularly, may have to cede their position to a more advanced new type of transport, which is . urban cable cars. .

In the future, the cable car will be a popular means of transportation.

The transport of people by cable car system only appears in tourist areas but in fact, according to calculations, in urban scale, it is much superior to public transport. Plus is being used to reduce the load for other terrestrial routes.

Accordingly, urban cable cars are more environmentally friendly, faster and especially cheaper than subway or skytrain, and of course this system will also occupy very little ground area. The urban cable car system built in Bolivia's La Paz is the best example of this type of vehicle.

Specifically, to build a cable car system of nearly 34km long with 39 stations in La Paz, people spend about 750 million USD (more than 1750 billion VND). Meanwhile, the subway system running under the 2nd Avenue of New York City (USA), though only nearly 14 km long, cost 17 billion USD (nearly 400 thousand billion VND).

Urban cable cars are more environmentally friendly, faster and especially cheaper than subway or skytrain.

Recognizing the advantages of bringing the cable car into a public transport, many major cities in the world such as Boston (USA) or Toronto (Canada) have planned to build this system in the near future. .
