The sprawling metro was subject to a highly inefficient transit system unable to handle growing user demand. Additionally, the chaotic traffic on the roads produced harmful noise and air pollution. Working together,...

With the help of a drone, a guide cable was strung across section 2 (between Plaza Villarroel station and Plaza Triangular station) of the White Line (Spanish: Linea Blanca). This task was completed ahead of schedule in just...
This past week, President Evo Morales announced the development of another urban cable car on the Mi Teleferico. The Sky Blue Line (Spanish: Linea Celeste) will be the eighth gondola alignment in the city’s phase two plans, which effectively makes it the 11th line of the entire Doppelmayr-built cable car network.
