The Union Cabinet has approved the transfer of land from the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) to the Uttarakhand government for the construction of an Aerial Passenger Ropeway System between Dehradun and Mussoorie.
The planned Ropeway is a 5.5-kilometer mono-cable ropeway between Purkul Gaon in Dehradun and Library in Mussoorie, with an approximate cost of Rs 285 crore.
It will be capable of transporting 1,000 people per hour in either direction.
