摘要

Aerial urban transport installation having vehicles (1) running along a horizontal aerial track (2) that are pulled by a hauling cable at a significant speed. The track consists of two carrier cables (3) suspended by tie rods (19) to a guy cable. The vehicles are devoid of individual propulsion and control means and are coupled in line to a hauling cable (6) by means of clamps (5) which can be uncoupled. The horizontality of the track on passage of the vehicle is ensured by a suitable arrangement of the support members for the carrier cables (3).
