The cable car would not work with JIRAMA
Technical tests of the cable car on the cables connecting Soarano and Anosy will continue until Monday 17 June 2024. The objective is to validate the behavior of the device as well as the operation of all elements of the TPC, such as cable power, engine, controls, transmission of information...
Independent of JIRAMA
Contrary to the rumors circulating on social networks this week, the cable car network would not depend on the energy supplied by JIRAMA.
Indeed, TPC tests are carried out with generators installed in stations but not with electricity from JIRAMA, specifies the SENVH.
According to the Secretary of State for new towns and housing, the start and stop of the cabins on the cables are part of the tests for the static and dynamic adjustments of the device. A simulation of the weight of 10 passengers per cabin, and tests of service cabins, are also on the program.
This test reassures users that the ISO standards applied in Europe for cable transport will be respected in Madagascar.
A major project, with hope for change
The cost of this cable car project is estimated at more than 151 EUR million, part of which will be financed by the French treasury. The work was entrusted to French companies, Apples and colas.
The installation of the cable car should help reduce pressure on the roads, requested every day by at least 2 million people who move between the center and the outskirts of Antananarivo.
Hope for the inhabitants of the capital, to move more easily, no traffic jams... There is also hope that this change will contribute to the development of tourism in Antananarivo and Madagascar.
