A few highlights from around the world of Urban Gondolas, Gondola Transit, and Cable Propelled Transit:
- An ambitious urban gondola proposal for Annecy, France. Maybe too ambitious?
- Citizens opposed to the Burnaby Mountain Gondola in Vancouver plan to take their complaints all the way to the provincial government.
- The Doppelmayr Group announces plans for a €100+ cable upgrade in Mont Blanc. Granted, this isn’t urban in any way, shape, form or description but that’s a sizeable order nonetheless.
- The Hamburg authorities float the idea of using “cable cars” to move cargo throughout the massive Hamburg Port by the year 2025. This isn’t the only cable-oriented transport plan currently being discussed in Hamburg as you can see from this past Weekly Roundup.
