QuayQuip protects London’s new cable car
In 2011, QuayQuip was challenged by Transport for London to design a floating impact protection system for the new Emirates Air Line – an ambitious cable car route across the River Thames.
Working in close collaboration with the main contractors, Mace, and consultants Buro Happold and Royal Haskoning, QuayQuip had to prepare a floating barrier capable of safely dissipating large energies, and have it ready for delivery in time for the cable car entering service by summer 2012.
