The commitment to use of a ropeway (tramway) within a project should be based upon a thorough analysis that recognizes the unique advantages and limitations of this mode of transportation. Unless the developer views the role of the tramway as it relates to all of the project features, the project may fail to meet expectations, be inefficient as a transportation system, limit the growth of the project or make the project financially infeasible.
Tramway Engineering has a thorough understanding of how ropeways can be integrated into a project. We can help select the proper kind of ropeway that will meet the project needs. Factors that must be considered include:
-
Capacity of the tramway in passengers per hour.
-
Alignment limitation of certain types of tramways.
-
Environmental considerations
-
Costing.
