Mexico: inauguration of the Cablebus2 urban cable car constructed by Leitner

On Sunday 8 August the Cablebus2 cable car, constructed by the Italian company Leitner, one of the world leaders in cableways, was inaugurated in Mexico City. Working with its local partner Alfa (Aristos group), it has completed the longest urban cableway in Latin America, which is also one of the most significant recent urban mobility works in Mexico. It connects Iztapalapa, one of the most disadvantaged municipalities of Mexico City (2 million inhabitants), with the rest of the capital via a 10.6 km cableway with 300 cabins, carrying an estimated flow of about 100,000 people per day. This advanced project cuts journey times in half, reduces CO2 emissions, and ensures safe and dignified transport for the inhabitants of the area. In spring 2022 the “Mexicable2-Linea Verde”, an 8.5 km gondola lift constructed by Leitner in partnership with the Aristos group, via a public-private partnership, should also be inaugurated in the Ecatepec area.
