EcoTechnoPark: working meeting with a delegation from the Turkish city of Erzurum

Recently we had a working meeting with a delegation from the Turkish city of Erzurum headed by the General Secretary of its municipality. At the meeting with representatives of the project designing Company in the presence of the General Director of SkyWay Technologies Co. Nadezhda Kosareva the Head of targeted projects Department Kiryl Badulin delivered a presentation about the development of SkyWay transport project at the local resort.

This is their third visit to EcoTechnoPark, business meetings were successfully held previously in December of 2016 and January of 2017. The city and the mountain ski resort can be connected with a 5.3-kilometer route at the cost of USD 12 million without rolling stock. A ticket to the vehicle will cost USD 3, and the project will be able to bring USD 3 million revenue per year minus cost of production. The payback period is about five years, but the creators and the customers are confident that in such a popular place it is quite possible to "close" these "five years" of payback for a shorter period.

The work is ongoing. The next step is the visit of representatives from SkyWay project designing Company for detailed developing the project in difficult terrain.
