The craze for urban cable public passenger transport systems has been real since the beginning of the 2000s, with growing interest from cities of all sizes. The advantages highlighted are in particular: proven and reliable technical systems, a priori easy implementation due to less stringent installation constraints than for a system established on the ground, and a cost that is more easily controllable.
If we can cite some emblematic establishments both in France and abroad, such as Brest, Saint-Denis de la Réunion, Toulouse, Hong Kong, Santo Domingo and especially the first publicized reference that constitutes Medellin in Colombia, it is difficult to discern a volume of achievements that matches the ambitions displayed. Sector stakeholders unanimously report blockages of various kinds, both from certain elected officials and especially community technicians, and from potential local residents.
The abandonments recorded for example in Orléans, Grenoble, Lyon or Île-de-France (where around fifteen projects were identified in the 2010s) raise the question of the conditions for transposing systems of transport primarily used in natural environments (mountains in particular) and rather for tourist trips. Is it as easy as the promoters of teleport systems make it out to be? Is it as economical as expected? Without claiming to be exhaustive, this article aims to identify the difficulties encountered and to propose a more in-depth reflection on certain points currently considered blocking.
