During the International Horticultural Exposition Floriade will present a number of green mobility solutions, of which the cable car is one. Together with Arcadis, Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group, Municipality of Almere and other partners the Floriade has a green mobility ambition for Floriade Expo 2022. It is possible however to use the cable car from the northern part of the area before the opening of Floriade Expo 2022. In view of the ongoing construction in the southern part until April 2022, the boarding station in this section will not be used until then.

It is expected to be operational mid 2021. The Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group and consulting and engineering firm Arcadis have already started constructions of the ropeway. By choosing this type of connection, the Floriade will realize an optimal distribution of visitors across the Floriade park as well as offer a comfortable means of transport with a high experience level.” Sven Stimac, Chief Operating Officer of Floriade: “A cable car will offer our guests an experience that will provide an additional option, next to the planned pedestrian crossing over the A6 highway, to quickly travel across the 60 hectares of the Floriade park while at the same time having the opportunity to gently enjoy the landscaping, which will be clearly visible from above.

The ropeway also offers a unique opportunity to showcase the potential for sustainable use of urban cable cars. Just imagine the fantastic bird’s eye view you will have of the unique rectangular sections of the grounds, the arboretum enriched with trees, plants, shrubs and flower borders, the expo plots for the international exhibits and all other places of interest. In a gondola they will travel quickly between the southern and northern part of the Floriade park. Visitors of Floriade Expo 2022 will enjoy a spectacular 5-minute ride experience from an 850 meters long ropeway above the park.
