The Schilthornbahn 20XX project outlines a plan to upgrade the cable car system. The section between Stechelberg and Mürren will feature a traditional cable car with a capacity of 800 passengers per hour, and will also incorporate fully automated logistics for goods and luggage. Above Mürren, the system will switch to Funifor cable cars connecting the stations of Birg and Schilthorn. The Funifor system was chosen for its excellent wind stability and its ability to utilize compact, low-rise station buildings. All new station buildings will adhere to an integrated architectural concept developed in collaboration with federal and cantonal cultural and heritage preservation offices.
