This was project was apparently cancelled, as the rapidly growing city installed bigger, more costly transit modes instead.
• 2007 – Final approval for construction of a 4.2 km-long installation carried by eight pylons in Weihai. The system would connect Liugong Island with the mainland city of Weihei, with a large observation-tower station in the center. According to a company spokesman in early 2009 construction was underway on the $100 million Weihai line, with completion originally scheduled for 2011.
