A quick look at some of the things that happened this week in the world of cable cars, urban gondolas, and cable propelled transit:

  • A proposed cable car project system in Malaysia, which is part of an larger development plan called Santubong Beach City and Resort Centre, has spurred some controversy after the project proponents began clearing mangrove swamps as part of their initial site “investigations”.
  • The Indianapolis Zoo has nearly raised enough money build an aerial gondola. This ride will allow park visitors travel overhead a proposed orangutan exhibit.
  • Located 90km from the capital, Lima, the archaeological and tourist site of Choquequirao in Peru may soon see a cable car. The proposal appears to have support from the Culture Minister and a feasibility study is reported to be underway.
