UNStudio has released images of its design for IJbaan, a green, future-proof cable car linking West and North Amsterdam. The result of a crowdfunding campaign started by founders Bas Dekker and Willem Wessels in 2015, the project is to be implemented by 2025, marking the city's 750th anniversary. The ?all electric? transport scheme forms part of Amsterdam?s ambition to be a European center for urban innovation, integrating forward-thinking technology with existing public transport modalities.
