CM: Project set to start year-end


Green transport: The cable car system, or widely known as the aerial ropeway, is known as an environmentally sustainable transport.



GEORGE TOWN: After the recent breakdown of the funicular train to Penang Hill, the state government resolved to implement an alternative way to ascend the hill, which is through a modern cable car that connects the summit with the Penang Botanic Gardens.

This link will be among several infrastructure projects expected to take off this year besides the Light Rail Transit and the Penang South Reclamation – both of them integral parts of the RM46bil Penang Transport Master Plan.
