Private company proposes way to get cars off the streets of Atlantic City, but environmental permits may prevent progress...

A company is seeking to build a $350 million sky ride system in Atlantic City that would link casinos with major attractions and the train station.

Doppelmayr CTEC said the "Atlantic City Chariots of the Sky" gondola system could get millions of vehicles off the streets and reduce air pollution.

The company said it ideally could be built without taxpayer expense. Tickets, which could cost about $8 for all-day traveling, would help repay the investment costs, Doppelmayr CTEC said.

City Planning Director William Crane said the project would be difficult to build because it would require environmental permits.
