4.00 p.m. - Best Practice: How to shift towards public transport – can ropeways help?
Up-to-date transport planning along the best practice example Câble C1.
Public transport networks are the backbone of urban life. New public transport services are urgently needed but implementing can be challenging and requires many steps. One exceptional role model in improving its network towards the needs of the people is Paris/Val-de-Marne region. The city is currently implementing several major projects, including the Câble C1 ropeway.
We will break down the ideal process for implementing a new transport solution and show how to satisfy the resident´s requirements and commuters’ expectations to improve the mobility shift through the example of the Paris region. Get some insights from the planning perspective and the transport impact of this outstanding project.

Keynotes & discussions
Austrian Cable Car Conference
The Austrian Cable Car Conference highlighted current topics and future developments that will become increasingly important. As part of the workshops under the motto “Strategy 2040 - The Future of Skiing”, the focus was on the future of winter sports.
INAC Conference
The Inter-Alpine Natural Hazards Conference (INAC), which addresses current and future challenges in the field of natural hazards in Alpine regions, was held for the first time.
The overlap between INAC and INTERALPIN enabled an exceptionally intensive dialogue between science, infrastructure and technology, and industry under the motto "Industry meets Science."
Snow Crystal Gala
The SNOW CRYSTAL GALA 2025 celebrated the 50th anniversary of INTERALPIN with 650 guests. The "Snow Crystal of Winter Sports," an award presented since 1992 for outstanding achievements in skiing, was presented to ORF.
The Austrian Ski Federation (ÖSV) honored a media outlet that has shaped winter sports for decades and, with great dedication, brought it into people's living rooms.
OITAF Seminar
On May 7, 2025, the OITAF seminar took place, addressing the question of whether the cable car industry is facing a structural upheaval due to artificial intelligence.
Experts from France, Italy, Austria, and Switzerland discussed the opportunities and risks of AI in areas such as engineering, design, and operations. The seminar provided an exciting forum for knowledge transfer and facilitated an intensive exchange about the future of the cable car industry.
