Cable car as a public transport. Never heard of it.
For public transport speed of 50-80km/h is sought, but what is use of Maglev when the Airport Express is already completed in Delhi.
Bangalore will also have its monorail soon and metro will be completed in few years
London doesnt have monorail, they have normal railways, and underground tube that's it. You should see london streets they dont have space for monorail lol
Central Gov is planning to connect Chennai-Bangalore-Coimbatore-Kochi-Thiruvananthapuram corridor. So if railway goes by this route only south of Kerala will benefit from it.There are plans to lay 3800km of tracks and which will cost Rs 700-1000 million per km (US$ 15-22 million/km). But I can't understand why Kerela is planning to lay separate track when central government is planning bullet trains between Kochi-Thiruvananthapuram.

Since Kerala is a highly urbanized state from north to south and its difficult to distinguish between urban and rural settlements, we need a high speed transport for connecting the north and south of the state. Now it takes almost 16hrs to travel between north and south. If this railway network is opened the time will reduce to 2:45 hrs. Thats why the state Gov is planning for a separate corridor connecting north and south of the state ie,Thiruvananthapuram - Mangalore High-Speed Passenger Corridor with the help of Japan.
And the Tamil Nadu Chamber of Commerce and Industry wants the Chennai-Madurai-Nagercoil-Thiruvananthapuram corridor to be included in the list of six corridors already announced by the Railways for conducting pre-feasibility study for operation of high-speed bullet train. If this is also sanctioned Kerala is going to have three HSR altogether.
Oh then you should come to my place here in Sikkim, my friend. Cable cars are more popular in mountain places than in plains.
I looked into Wikipedia, following cities are getting both Metro and Monorail:-
1)Mumbai/Navi Mumbai
2)Chennai
3)Bangalore
4)Delhi
5)Indore
6)Kolkata
7)Patna
8)Pune
This is updated list:
