New cable car over River Thames opens to passengers


The brand new River Thames cable car is officially open for business.
The cable car reaches heights of 90 metres, that the same height as Big Ben.
Passengers get a bird's eye view of the City, Canary Wharf, Thames Barrier and the Olympic Park on the 5 minute trip.

The cable car took £60 million to build and can carry up to 2,500 people an hour.Tickets cost £3.20 for an adult with an Oyster card and £1.60 for children.
The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, opened the cable car. He said the timing of the opening was great for the Olympics.
"As the world's eyes focus on our city, I can think of no better message to send out across the globe.
"People will come and ride it as a great tourist attraction. They will bring their 
families and their friends for a great day out." From CBBC

  1. I'm amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog that's both educative and amusing, and without a doubt,
    you've hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough men and women are speaking
    intelligently about. Now i'm very happy that I came across this in my search
    for something regarding this.

  2. I've been surfing online greater than three hours as of late, but I by no means found any
    interesting article like yours. It's beautiful value sufficient for me.
    In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the net will be a lot
    more useful than ever before.

  8. Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd
    figured I'd ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe
    guest writing a blog article or vice-versa? My blog covers a lot of the same subjects as
    yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.

    If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail.
    I look forward to hearing from you! Terrific blog by the
    way!

  9. Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
    A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would
    really make my blog jump out. Please let me know where you got your theme.
    Thanks
