Project Description<\/h3>\n

On the 400th anniversary the city of Gothenburg plans to build a cable car over the G\u00f6ta \u00c4lv river. The inhabitants of Gothenburg have been asked to deposit ideas and wishes for the future of their city. This resulted in a concrete working plan for the implementation of various projects until the anniversary celebrations in 2021. Among other things the working paper also contains a cable car.<\/p>\n

The north and south of the city are connected via two bridges and the public transport (tram and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)) primarily runs over the eastern bridge. None of the two bridges are located close to the center of the city.<\/p>\n

The planning area for the planned city cable car is north of the port, not far from the city center of Gothenburg. A total of four cable car stations are planned. The first one is located at the central public transportation hub called J\u00e4rntorget, the secret main square of the Gothenburg. On the northern riverbank is the Lindholmen district. Lindholmen is being transformed into a district dominated by research and modern industry. However, more housing is also to be created here, as there is a great demand for apartments by students due to the Chalmers Technical University, which is in this district. In the Wieselgrensplatsen district north of Lindholmen, a new public transportation hub for trams, buses and cable car is to be built. The planned V\u00e4stra Ramberget midway station is envisaged on the site of Volvo Trucks, one of the largest employers in Sweden.<\/p>\n

The proposed cable car between J\u00e4rntorget and Lindholmen shall be realized in Tri-cable Gondola Detachable (TGD) technology to ensure maximum availability and passenger comfort. The large TGD cabins with a capacity of about 30 passengers offer enough space for bicycles, buggies, and wheelchairs. The gondola shall be fully integrated into the public transportation network of Gothenburg.<\/p>\n

Zatran was responsible for cable car consulting, planning, design and engineering works and acted as a cable car specialist and expert in all cable car issues for the transport planning department of the city (Trafikkontoret) and the involved parties.<\/p>\n

The proposed city cable car would be a Tri-cable Gondola Detachable (TGD) system with a total length of 3.1 km, a capacity of 2.000 pphpd and 4 stations.<\/p>\n
