MetroCable Public Transportation Cable Cars running in Medellin City, Colombia #306449014
Description
Medellin, Colombia, boasts a unique public transportation system that takes advantage of its hilly terrain. The Metrocable, a network of cable cars, acts as an aerial extension of the city's subway, the Medellin Metro. Launched in 2004, the Metrocable was the first urban cable car system specifically designed for public transportation. This innovative solution bridges the gap between the bustling city center and the isolated neighborhoods perched on the hillsides. The cable cars efficiently transport residents, particularly those in low-income areas, reducing commute times significantly and fostering social inclusion by connecting them to jobs and opportunities in the valley below.
