Abstract

This paper aims to determine the potential demand for a cable car as an integrated part of public transport (PuT) as shown by the example of the City of Graz. Graz is a moderate-sized city with high population growth. PuT-systems (trams and buses) in the city area are already reaching capacity limits but the transport infrastructure, especially in the city centre, can hardly be extended. Although the transport capacity of cable car systems cannot compete with an underground system, it could represent a cost efficient and effective alternative for dealing with the PuT capacity restrictions in the historic city centre. The results of coordinated mobility surveys present the reactions of potential user groups concerning an additional hypothetical transport system, respectively a cable car. The results extend the data base for the demand modelling of the mobility behaviour within a multimodal transport model. A nested logit approach was used to integrate the cable car into the demand model. The modelled passenger trips confirm a satisfactory demand potential for a cable car within the multimodal transport system of Graz.
