Aerial Cable Transportation Planning
Sightseeing lifts provide an opportunity for the general public to access scenic mountain terrain, while urban aerial people mover lifts can help to mitigate transportation congestion in urban centres. The application of aerial cable transportation modes has extended beyond ski resorts to become an attractive transportation solution in urban areas, sightseeing facilities and adventure parks. Ecosign’s in-depth knowledge of aerial cable system technology and planning has helped numerous clients plan and develop aerial cable systems in projects with no ski component. Work scope includes terminal design and integration with surrounding context, selection of equipment type, capacity and alignment, integration with recreation facilities and overall analysis of the impacts of a proposed aerial cable transport system, including an assessment on the potential impacts to tree canopy. The scope of our work on aerial cable transportation planning can include a variation of the following:
- Sightseeing Gondola Master Plan;
- Urban Transportation Gondola Master Plan;
- Visual Impact Analysis & 3D Visualization;
- Adventure Park Master Plan; and a
- Transportation Study.
