| Popis: | In 2004, the first urban aerial cable-car public transport system was introduced in the city of Medellín, Colombia. It is both a technically and socially innovative response to urban transport problems since it uses an application of ski-slope technology to connect the Northeast low-income areas of Medellín to the city. The Metrocable gave more visibility to the state action through urban planning. This paper considers how this project has been redefining the notion of periphery by reducing the distance between once marginal neighborhoods and the heart of the city. It outlines the impacts both in terms of mobility and spatial transformation in order to understand how such an infrastructure can be the expression of the political will of social and territorial inclusion and change the relation between the city and its periphery. |
