16 scale mobili, sette ascensori per il sito sacro indiano Skywalk

Sedici scale mobili e sette ascensori fanno parte di una passerella di 460 m progettata fuori Gurdwara Shaheedan Sahib ad Amritsar, nello stato indiano nordoccidentale del Punjab, la Tribune reports. Amritsar Smart City officials aim to upgrade infrastructure near Gurdwara Shaheedan Sahib, a holy site that has a daily footfall of up to 50,000 pilgrims, to position Amritsar as a "World Class Tourism Destination." Currently, visitors to the gurdwara — a place of assembly for Sikhs — must cross a road, resulting in minor accidents and traffic congestion. In addition to the vertical-transportation equipment, the Rs 63-crore (US$7.9 million) skywalk will have restrooms, a visitor information center and police posts. Four companies have expressed interest in building the skywalk, and officials are proceeding with the bid process.
