The possibility of construction of a cableway in the city was discussed in Rostov-on-Don at the meeting chaired by the Minister of Transport of the region Vitaliy Kushnarev, as the press service of the Ministry reported.

      According to the rector of the Donskoy State Technical University Besarion Meshi, the best option for building the first cableway in Rostov-on-Don is the route from Teatralnaya Square, across Zelenyi Island, to the recreational area on the left bank of Don. During the meeting it was also proposed to connect the banks of Don in the area of the industrial zone on the left bank by a new mode of transport. The cableway, first of all, should become a public mode of transport, not an attraction. It is therefore necessary to determine which area of the city will be most suitable and appropriate for its construction. In the near future the scientific experts of DSTU will have to prepare preliminary estimates of costs and passenger traffic for the optimum alternative of cableway construction in Rostov-on-Don.
