A letter to the mayor of Bristol

Dear Mayor of Bristol,

I am writing to you to propose an alternative idea for transportation in Bristol. You have probably considered every possible option, yet I think, I have a fantastic idea: a teleferic system. After having travelled on La Paz's 40km long teleferic system, I am confident that having a similar teleferic system in Bristol, would revolutionize our city! 

As well as being a fun and enjoyable way to get around, it is also cheaper and easier to construct than an underground, which I know is what is currently proposed for our city. When building an underground, you could meet many obstacles, whereas building a teleferic is more straightforward and requires less disruption and destruction of current infrastructure. I have also come up with a solution about how to build the stations on Bristol's narrow streets: stations can be built over the roads like a tunnel!

I believe that a teleferic system would greatly enhance Bristol's tourism (we would be the only city in England to introduce this system) and there would be less pollution which I know is something very close to your heart!

But I would let the photos of La Paz's teleferic speak for themselves! If nothing else, do consider the element of fun in this system!






Yours sincerely,

Orestis
