Cable cars and cableways function as an efficient means of transport in an urban setting. Find out more on our blog!
Cable Cars: ropeways as a sustainable system for urban mobility
Urban ropeway projects by the HTI Group around the globe demonstrate high transport efficiency, resource-saving operation and cost-saving functionality.
Ulaanbaatar: Central cable car Axis for the capital of Mongolia
A cable car from north to south, simultaneously connecting the eastwest axis – that‘s the idea behind the transportation project in Ulaanbaatar. In the Mongolian capital, a fourkilometer- long system from the French manufacturer POMA is being constructed to enhance the lives of residents on multiple levels.
Vaughan: A cable car for Toronto’s suburb
The current transport plan for the Canadian city of Vaughan also includes a study for an urban cable car. The urban planners at SCJ Alliance have designed a route that runs through the centre of a motorway through the city.
CCW 2024: The great post-event report
600 visitors from 21 countries as well as 51 exhibitors and 17 partners from ten nations: That is the result of the second edition of the Cable Car World congress fair. Clearly, more and more cities are recognizing the potential of urban cable cars.
Cologne: The “Rheinpendel” as a future-orientated mobility solution
Municipal transport systems are reaching their limits in many places. Traffic jams and overcrowded buses or even inadequate access to peripheral and newly developed areas cause frustration. The urban cable car can provide a remedy here. They are characterised by a fast construction time and minimal land sealing and transport passengers comfortably through traffic jams – as the cable car in Cologne proves.
Cable Car Planning – Baucon ZT
Innovative solutions for towers and stations: The Hòn Thôm holds the record for being the longest cable car of the world. BAUCON INT. ZT GMBH was commissioned with the structual design and scrutineering of the stations and towers.
Paris – BARRIER-FREE CONNECTION TO THE PARIS METRO NETWORK
The construction works for the Cable C1 continues to progress – the towers of the cable car are already positioned and preperations for the cable hoist have been made. For Île-de-France-Mobilités this is a cause for celebration, as the goal of creating a new connection for the city is being realised step by step.
Software – SMART MANAGEMENT OF URBAN ROPEWAYS
Urban ropeways are operated by companies that have never come into contact with ropeway technology before. The need for digital solutions is correspondingly high – from maintenance and management to strategic decisions.

How do cable car operators keep their total costs of ownership low?
TÜV SÜD ensuring the safety of urban cable cars
TÜV SÜD, as an inspection and certification service provider, supports manufacturers, operators, and planners worldwide with their broad expertise in cable car technology.
Cable car planning: experiences from practice
Varanasi and Shimla – these are the two most important showcase projects of urban cable cars by the engineering firms SALZMANN and the BERNARD Group. Together with numerous other projects, they form the basis of a rich treasure trove of experience that can be applied to urban cable cars worldwide. An overview of the path of a cable car – from idea to finished facility.
Cable car in package
The journey from the idea to a completed cable car is long and includes many stations. That is why cable car experts from Germany, Austria and South Tyrol have decide to build the ROPEWAY PROJECT GROUP. Due to the involfment of a broad expertise area, urban cable car projects can be handled in part or from one source. This is proved by projects in Duisburg, Cottbus, Klausen and Nainital.
