Winning Prague cable car design looks sleek while solving ... (Radio Prague)

The city of Prague recently published some striking visualisations showing the designs for a planned cable car connection stretching from Prague 6 to Prague ...

The jury shortlisted five teams and invited them to Prague in June to see the location and surroundings of where the future cable car will be, and the winner, announced in early August, was London architecture firm William Matthews Associates, who are the brains behind the design of the cable car in London as well as the modernization of London Bridge station. According to a spokesperson for the Prague public transport company DPP who spoke to Czech news site Novinky.cz, construction should begin in 2024 and should not cause any disruption to local traffic. In May, the Prague public transport company DPP announced an international open architecture competition for the design of the new cable car connecting the districts of Podbaba and Bohnice, consisting of three stations and five pylons. “The three stations are in three very different areas. There will also be an intermediary station in Troja, which will be located by the future new entrance to the zoo. The lack of a decent public transport connection between Prague 6 and Prague 8 has long been a source of consternation for local residents.
