FRANCE – VALMOREL – 2023

PLANCHAMP

In the heart of Valmorel, at the gateway to the Tarentaise Valley in the Hautes-Alpes, the Sofival group has installed a new gondola lift that operates all year round, connecting the village to the rest of the ski area via the Combe de Beaudin. The Planchamp cable car is equipped with 75 state-of-the-art X-Line EVO cabins that can accommodate up to 10 people and can transport up to 3,600 people per hour.

UNBEATABLE

In the heart of the village, Domaine Skiable Valmorel (DSV), a subsidiary of the Sofival group, is installing a brand new gondola lift for its main resort departure point, replacing a 4-seater chairlift dating from 1997. The Planchamp gondola lift is equipped with 75 latest-generation Evo 10-seater X-Line cabins, allowing a capacity of 3,600 passengers per hour in absolute comfort during the 4.5-minute journey, with superb views of the Savoyard valley.

For this major new installation, the entire line has been redesigned to meet all safety and comfort requirements: a single section instead of the previous two, an extended station and wide tracks for easy boarding by skiers, optimal travel time with a nominal speed of 7m/s (one of the fastest in France!), the possibility of operating all year round in winds of up to 25m/s, among a range of tailor-made technical and aesthetic options, for the main lift leaving from the village, which connects to the rest of the ski area via the Combe de Beaudin.

More about

The project

To support urban development in the country’s 2nd largest city, Santiago de los Caballeros, the Dominican government has created the SITS (Santiago Integrated Transport System). At the heart of the project is a soft and sustainable mobility service accessible to all, including a monorail, bicycles, electric buses and a 12-seater gondola almost 4 km long.

As in Santo Domingo, the Santiago gondola is equipped with the latest generation Direct Drive motorization, offering reliable, fast and environmentally-friendly transport of 4,500 people per hour at speeds of 7 m/s. Its comfortable 12-seater cabins are decked out in the city’s emblematic red color, as they take to the Dominican skies.

The gondola flies over the most congested areas of the city, which has a population of 130,000, to link the 4 stations in just 10 minutes. By connecting residents directly to job opportunities and upgrading public spaces, the authorities intend to give new economic and social impetus to the neighborhoods served by the line.

Third urban aerial tramway

for the Dominican Republic

The cable car traverses the city’s most congested areas, connecting a total of four stations in just ten minutes. This means that the cable car station at the main station, where a monorail station will soon be built, has become an important intermodal hub. Teleferico lines 1 and 2 operate 17 hours a day, 355 days a year. The operation and maintenance contract for this new system has once again been awarded to POMA.

POMA, innovation

for the project

Development of Dominican transports

The Santiago de los Caballeros gondola lift will be the 3rd POMA line built in just 6 years in the Dominican Republic, which has made ropeway transportation the symbol of innovative and virtuous mobility to boost the country’s development, a model for the entire Caribbean region.

An intermodal mobility solution

The central station, located at the crossroads of a key road network and which will also host the future monorail station, will become a major intermodal hub for thousands of daily users.

More about

The project

With 6 lines in service, it is an international benchmark, and the network of gondola lifts now stretches over 14 kilometres, directly connected to the different lines of the Medellín Metro by multimodal stations. Each year, more than 220 million people use the city's transport system, demonstrating a successful social inclusion model that offers a new quality of life to the city's residents through social connections and increasingly attractive neighbourhoods.

At the heart of the Medellín Metro public transport system, Line P has a direct connection to Line A of the Metro at the ACEVEDO station, the intermodal hub from which the first Metrocable also departs. Line P connects some 200,000 residents in north-west Medellín through 4 stations along a 2700 m line located near the public library, medical centres, a community police station, landscaped parks and playgrounds for children. Some of these infrastructures were created after the new line project and have given the district a new lease on life !

More about

The project

Fitting seamlessly into the city's multi-modal public transport network, the new line is a wonderful asset for the 400,000 people who live in the western part of the Dominican capital, linking up the Los Alcarrizos neighbourhood with metro line 2. The second line built by POMA lets residents of the capital's western suburbs cross dense, highly congested areas that are an obstacle to reaching the city centre.

Line 2 of the “Teleferico Santo Domingo” stretches over 4.2 km, with four stations connecting over 23 neighbourhoods to the west of the capital. A single ticket valid for the city's entire transport network lets passengers board one of the 157 cabins criss-crossing the Dominican sky, and travel to the city centre quickly, reliably and comfortably, via a public transport corridor accessible to everyone: a brilliant alternative to one-hour-plus journeys by car or bus on heavily congested roads.

The capacity of 4500 passengers per hour means that this area’s residents can now reach the city centre more quickly, taking one of the 160 12-place cabins that pass over the urban obstacles at a speed of 7 m/s. This is a world first in urban ropeway transportation !

World first

The T2 line in Santo Domingo isthe 1st urban aerial cable car to operate at a speed of 7 m/s!

Development of Dominican transports

In keeping with its strategy for the development of rapid public transport, in 2018 the Dominican capital decided to install a 5 km urban gondola lift system. This solution was designed to answer the many challenges of sustainable mobility – heavy traffic, increasing congestion, urban gridlock. Operated by the subsidiary POMA RD, this first line now connects the north-east zone to the city centre in only 20 minutes via its connection with line 2 of the metro. Line 1 of the “Teleférico Santo Domingo”, with its 195 10-seater cabins, connects more than 23 districts. It provides transport for 3,000 people per hour, in each direction, crossing the Ozama River twice.

An intermodal mobility solution

To meet a global enhanced mobility, the cable car is connected via the first station to the metro, which is just being extended. As an intermodal hub, the station has been designed as a large new district centre, whereas the three other stations are kept as simple as possible, as they are located directly in densely populated residential areas.

A third line under construction

POMA is currently installing the country’s third urban aerial tramway line, construction work having begun in autumn 2021 in Santiago de los Caballeros – part of the drive to boost urban development in the country’s second largest city. A soft and sustainable mobility service accessible to all is at the heart of the project and will include a monorail, bicycles, electric buses and a 12-seater gondola lift covering a stretch of nearly 4 km. The Santiago de los Caballeros gondola lift will be the 3rd POMA line built in just six years in the Dominican Republic, making cable transportation the symbol of innovative and virtuous mobility to boost the country’s development.

A system in symbiosis with its environment

In terms of design, the new cable car is similar to its sister line. It remains simple, attractive building architecture coupled with gondolas in the national colours blue, white and red, as for the national flag.  There are few opportunities to get a view over Santo Domingo, hence the cable car becomes an unforgettable experience for tourists.

A project supported by Agence Française de Développement

In 2020, with the support of the AFD, manager of the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP), the “Mobilise Your City” programme resulted in a second “Teleférico” line. This new line will be 4.2 km long in the north-eastern part of the city. A single ticket is still all passengers need to travel across the whole city-wide network, with the new line accessible to 395,000 residents via 4 stations.

They talk about it

Los Alcarrizos de Santo Domingo

“With this new aerial tramway line, the aim is to pursue a pro[1]cess of transformation and social cohesion across the city and its suburbs, by providing safe, res[1]pectable public transport that fits perfectly with other local mobility solutions, providing residents of historically marginalised neighbourhoods such as Los Alcarrizos with access to the city centre and greater integration. With this cable transportation line, along with all the work undertaken to modernise and extend the current transport network, we expect to see a profound transformation in terms of mobility across the entire city, in every way. Mobility will be more efficient, greener, faster, more accessible and more enjoyable.”

More about

THE PROJECT

In order to enable visitors to get around with ease, the Namur gondola crosses the river Sambre, connecting with the city centre, from the bottom station, Place Maurice Servais, to the top station located on the Citadel’s Esplanade, a stone’s throw from the Digital Pavilion, a legacy of the Milan Universal Expo.

 

As the Namur gondola is built in a classified heritage environment, numerous studies were carried out to understand the technical, landscape, archaeological, acoustic, architectural and ecological aspects. Not only was the integration successful but the ropeway also represents a real environmental advantage to offer an alternative to road traffic in the Walloon capital.

 

Technologically speaking, the system is a pulsed movement gondola, with two trains of three cabins each accommodating six passengers for a pleasant four-minute ride.

First POMA installation in Belgium

Concession for 30 years

In 2017, the Municipal College of Namur awarded the contract for the construction of the Namur gondola to the POMA Franki and Labellemontagne consortium.

The three partner companies formed the consortium to create the basis for the Société Anonyme du Téléphérique de Namur, which is to operate the ropeway for the next 30 years.

The Namur project is POMA’s first tourist concession in Europe.

Urban transport

While constituting a major tourist attraction, the Namur ropeway is nonetheless a soft mobility solution. This low-carbon travel mode is appreciated by visitors and Citadel residents alike as they commute to school, to work or simply to the centre of Namur.

First POMA installation in Belgium

With the Namur gondola, POMA has completed its very first installation in Belgium.

Urban integration

The Namur gondola is installed in a classified heritage environment. A long careful study was therefore conducted for the design and integration of the stations.

Several route options were studied in order to preserve the integrity of the Citadel landscape and to showcase the ancient Roman city.

The “Téléphérique de Namur” was designed based on modern architecture that respects the uniqueness of the site and blends into the environment perfectly, with discreet line structures and remarkable acoustic comfort.

Silent transport

The pulsed movement gondola technology is particularly suited to this type of tourist transport with compact stations containing few rotating mechanical elements and guaranteeing optimal acoustic comfort for both users and local residents.
