Sandia Peak Flags Tram Modernization

Sandia Peak Tram is excited to announce that they  will be updating and upgrading the  current drive and control system. 

Sandia Peak Tramway is an aerial tramway located adjacent to Albuquerque, New Mexico. It stretches from the northeast edge of the city to Sandia Peak on the ridge line of the Sandia Mountains and has the world's third longest single span. It is the longest aerial tram in the Americas, and was the longest in the world from 1966 until being surpassed in 2010 by the Wings of Tatev in Armenia.

The current system has served  well since 1966 but it is time for a modernized, automated and more energy-efficient system.

In addition to the controls, hey  will be renovating the Lower and Upper Terminal’s Tram Consoles, the drive and control room and adding solar-powered cameras and weather stations on Towers 1 & 2
