In this video you can see the journey on a Cable Liner Shuttle from Piazzale Roma to the island of Tronchetto in Venice, Italy.
This video was filmed in November 2022.
The People Mover (CABLE Liner Shuttle) in Venice is an automated elevated shuttle train, which connects the Piazzale Roma—the major transportation hub of the city—and the Tronchetto island with a car parking facility. The train also makes a stop at the Marittima station where the passenger terminal of the Port of Venice is located.
The system's two four-car trains are pulled by a cable similar to a funicular, but with shallow gradients track: it reaches a maximum of 6.2% at the section crossing the Tronchetto channel, and is less than 5% over the rest of the track. Each of the two trains can accommodate 200 passengers.
The line was built by a consortium led by the Austrian company Doppelmayr Cable Car. It was the fifth Cable Liner shuttle system installed by the Doppelmayr Garaventa Group.
The whole 870-metre-long (0.5 mi) journey takes just over three minutes, including the stop next to the cruise ship terminal. The rail gauge is 1220 mm, difference in altitude between terminal stations 0.58 m.
Thanks for watching and have a nice day!
