ITANAGAR, Arunachal Pradesh: The Arunachal Pradesh government is set to introduce a ropeway system and electric buses in the capital city to enhance its urban transport infrastructure. According to Mayor Tamme Phassang of the Itanagar Municipal Corporation (IMC), discussions regarding the installation of the ropeway system are nearing completion.
The IMC is in talks with companies based in Hyderabad and Gujarat to finalise the project. The proposed ropeway aims to provide a scenic and efficient transportation route, connecting key areas of the city, including Lobi in Division 4, the Secretariat, Ganga Market, and Chimpu, with a two-way service.
In addition to the ropeway, the IMC is also working with Arunachal Pradesh State Transport Services (APSTS) to deploy 10 electric buses in Itanagar, with potential plans for future expansion based on the outcome of initial trials.
“These initiatives reflect IMC’s commitment to modernising the city’s transport network and promoting sustainable urban mobility,” the mayor stated.
