About:
The Teleférico da Providência is a 3 station, 721m urban cable car located in one of Brazil’s first favelas, Morro da Providência, in Rio de Janeiro. It was built as part of a community revitalization program and opened for service in July 2014.

Every Thursday, the Gondola Project team will select stunning captures of CPT lines. We hope this will continue to bring more attention to the technology and provide visually impactful examples of cable car systems worldwide. If you’d like to submit or nominate a picture for our “Photo of the Week”, we’d love to hear from you. Leave a comment below or send us an email at gondola@creativeurbanprojects.com.
