New Urban Gondola “Discovered”: The Manizales Metrocable

From the little we currently understand, the Manizales Metrocable opened in 2009, system carries 1,400 pphpd, has three total stations and cost roughly $27M USD. We can’t locate any system length.

As usual, any help from Gondola Project readers would be greatly appreciated. Take a look:
