Auckland gondola across Waitematā Harbour proposed as a zero emission public transport solutionGondola lines in New Zealand are found in tourist hot spots, lifting holidaymakers to the tops of ski fields and luge tracks - but a company is now proposing the system could be used as a high-capacity public transport system in Auckland. Hayman told the Herald that the system would also provide low carbon and zero-emissions public transport option to the city. He said the gondola could transport 6000 people an hour in each direction and would operate for up to 20 hours a day. Doppelmayr has built systems in Queenstown, Rotorua and at major ski fields as well as the cable car in Wellington. Bayswater particularly provided a good location for a pylon and would provide a transport link solution to the congestion in Devonport.
