The custom of rewiring of the cable car links to the proposed project’s overall management of Montjuic Passeig dels Cims both by improvements in capability, functionality and security, and the fact of being part of the new mobility system planned for the mountain.

The renewal of the cable car essentially maintains the original layout, but relocated stations adapting to new paths of the park, giving accessibility and comfort to users in addition to responding to new technical requirements of the facility.
