Just want to add that Constructor used to be a Civil Engineer and has worked on previous airport projects including Airport Way so we know he speaks wise words.

There is no way a monocable gondola system is going to be suitable for the numbers of passengers that will be rocking up at Parkway at peak times
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emirat...28cable_car%29 states the capacity of the Emirates Air Line Thames crossing is 2,500 passengers an hour or about 50 busloads. Interesting comment about could it operate in high winds though.
