Weekly Roundup: A Cable Car Gift For Sarajevo

Post by Steven Dale

A couple highlights from around the world of Urban Gondolas, Gondola Transit, and Cable Propelled Transit:

  • While not urban, this is certainly an interesting development: The SkiLink gondola project will link the Canyons and Solitude resorts in Utah. The project is intended solely as a transportation system between the two resorts and is expected to “reduce ski season traffic through Big Cottonwood Canyon by as much as 18,000 cars per year. Initially that means around 1 million fewer miles driven per year.” Should be an interesting one to follow.

  1. London (construction) update: [img]http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l526/meharris75/DSCF1104.jpg[/img] [img]http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l526/meharris75/DSCF1122.jpg[/img] (from skyscraper city) apparently construction on the southern station is also starting to take shape
  2. London still on pace to turn in may and open to public in June. There will be fare integration. Was that a question asked previously? I forget. The towers will be interesting. The towers in the Thames will require protection from ships, so a curtain wall of sorts is being built.
