Cable transport systems are increasingly becoming part of urban mobility strategies, offering low-carbon, efficient and space-saving solutions in areas with challenging topography or dense urban environments. At Sener, we deliver end-to-end engineering services for aerial cableways, ropeways and gondola systems — from planning and alignment design to stations, towers, electromechanical systems and urban integration.

We have worked on cable transport projects in La Paz, Medellín, Santo Domingo and Oran, helping integrate these systems into existing public transport networks and demonstrating their value as affordable, sustainable and socially inclusive solutions.

Why choose us

We combine expertise in transport engineering, architecture, electromechanics and sustainability, enabling us to design cable transport systems that deliver reliable operations, safe passenger experience and minimal environmental impact.

Aerial solutions tailored to urban and natural contexts

From urban corridors crossing rivers or steep hillsides to touristic and intermodal systems, we design cableways that connect people, neighborhoods and cities, reducing travel times and emissions.

How we work

Our methodology covers feasibility studies, demand modeling, alignment and station design, tower placement, electromechanical systems and commissioning. We ensure integration with metro, BRT and tram networks, maximizing accessibility and efficiency.

From alignment studies to operations support

We anticipate operational behavior through simulation and digital tools, ensuring long-term performance and scalability of cable systems.

How we support cable transport projects

We provide complete services for conceptual and detailed design, civil works, electromechanical integration, safety systems and multimodal connectivity. Our teams also apply wind and seismic studies, simulation models, BIM and RAMS methodologies to ensure projects are robust, safe and future-ready.
