Madagascar’s Capital Launches Cable Cars To Ease Traffic Congestion
Antananarivo, Madagascar’s capital, has launched a cable car system to ease traffic congestion in the city. The new public transportation system has a capacity to transport
1,200 passengers per hour, with each car able to carry up to 15 people.
The 12-kilometer long cable car system connects the city center to the outskirts, providing an alternative mode of transportation for residents. The project was financed through a 152 million Euro loan from France, aimed at reducing traffic congestion and improving air quality in the city.
Tickets are priced at 3,000 Malagasy ariary (approximately 0.8 Euros), making it an affordable option for residents. However, the government plans to offer subsidized fares for students and pensioners, with prices reduced by 50% for these groups.
The cable car system is expected to be fully operational by 2025, with the launch date set for early 2025. The system is expected to reduce travel time for residents, with the journey from the city center to the outskirts taking approximately 30 minutes.
The introduction of the cable car system is part of the city’s efforts to develop its public transportation infrastructure, reduce traffic congestion, and improve the overall quality of life for residents. With its capacity, affordability, and subsidized fares, the cable car system is expected to become a popular mode of transportation in Antananarivo.
