The focus shall be on the determination of the traffic potential, the technical feasibility and the evaluation of the economic efficiency of the developed transport lines.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, it shall be shown whether a ropeway, elevated guideway transit system or a suspension monorail is in conflict with superordinate legal and statutory provisions. In addition, the capacity, costs, efficiency and emissions of the selected means of transport are to be compared with trams and buses.<\/p>\n<p>For the potential investigation of ropeways, elevated guideway transit or suspension monorails in the Zurich urban area, the following investigation corridors were defined in coordination with the client:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Corridor Albisriederplatz &#8211; Milchbuck<\/li>\n<li>Corridor Altstetten &#8211; ETH H\u00f6nggerberg<\/li>\n<li>Corridor Oerlikon &#8211; ETH H\u00f6nggerberg<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In conclusion, the expected benefit-cost ratio is low for all corridors examined and the cost covering rate is below 50 % for all variants. None of the transport systems evaluated can significantly increase the attractiveness or improve public transport compared to the current public transport service. Therefore, no reasonable public interest in a ropeway, elevated transit system or suspension monorail can be identified.<\/p>\n<h3>Sevice description<\/h3>\n<p>The following contents were elaborated
