Thinking
ON A LONG-TERM BASIS
SUTRHE is also a project aiming to highlight how Phuket and other secondary
cities facing similar urban sprawl challenges could prepare themselves and take
advantage of the future mobility projects, by pondering questions for the long-
term vision, such as: how can the urban landscape be improved once the main
mobility corridors are implemented? How can the historical and natural heritage
be preserved and echo the local identity and attractiveness? What kind of new
generation of urban projects might blossom along the mobility corridors? How
can life quality increase in the coming years? These important questions have
been addressed with concrete examples in this study and most interestingly,
SUTRHE has demonstrated how other cost-efficient alternative such as cable
car technology could be integrated to complement the existing LRT project.
Developing public transportation SUTRHE has elaborated a benchmark of international cable car projects,
exploring international and operational schemes, in order to draw tailormade
IN PHUKET proposals for Phuket. It is important to keep in mind that SUTRHE study serves

possibly, with lower levels of pollution and CO2 emissions?
