The solution to the connectivity problem will be outlined in a feasibility study.<\/p>\n<p>The total cost of the study amounts to around 165,000 euros. The state of Bavaria, represented by Minister of Transport Christian <strong>Bernreiter<\/strong> (CSU), has provided a grant of 107,250 euros to support the project.<\/p>\n<p>Minister Bernreiter emphasizes: &#8220;The study should examine whether an urban cable car can be a technically, economically, and environmentally viable addition to public transportation. We are happy to support the development and expansion of attractive mobility options, even if the idea may seem unusual at first glance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-builder-row .fusion-layout-column.gradient-column-2 .fusion-column-wrapper:before {content: \"\";
