The Bucharest sector 2 City Hall plans to build a cable car ('telegondola') crossing the northern Bucharest lakes and is preparing the bid to choose the company which will offer consultancy for the zonal urban planning needed for the project. The consultancy fee will reach EUR 150,000. The consultancy bid will take place on September 20.

The cable car will connect Herastrau park to Pantelimon area of Bucharest, but the final track will be decided during the design phase.

The cable car will be both a tourism attraction and a means of public transport. The initiators of the project expect it to carry 3,000 people each hour, which is the equivalent of 30 buses. The city hall expects it to alleviate the car traffic in Bucharest.

Similar cable car systems, buitt only for tourists, have been implemented in Mamaia seaside resort and in several mountain resorts.
