A transport group's pinpointed a route in Auckland where it would like to build a cable car system.Â
Doppelmayr New Zealand shortlisted 20 sites last year and has now chosen an eight-stop arterial route from Auckland Airport to Botany. Â
It would connect with Puhinui Station, and integrate with Airport transport infrastructure. Â
CEO Garreth Hayman told Mike Hosking that their analysis has shown that cable cars can produce all the benefits of a busway, and even beat it areas such as punctuality and frequency.Â
He said that they estimate the costs to be around $800 million, which is half of the cost of a busway.Â
