Overview
- City planners are studying a gondola-style system that would carry guests above surface traffic between Anaheim’s rail-and-bus hub and the resort.
- Alternatives under review include a trackless streetcar and autonomous vehicles operating in a dedicated or median lane on Katella Avenue.
- ARTIC sits roughly three miles from Disneyland, which limits how easily Amtrak and Metrolink riders can reach the parks today.
- Early materials note right‑of‑way hurdles, possible removal of palm trees, and a preliminary cost estimate of about $11 million per mile for a gondola.
- The effort remains in early planning, with a 2028 target, while separate Disneyland projects—an eastside parking structure with a pedestrian bridge and planned park expansions—proceed independently.
