Seems like someone has a case of the Mondays
Unlike musks attempts to reinvent the tunnel and how to get through it, gondolas have actually been used for legitimate transportation purposes in Latin America, Europe, and Asia for decades.
They've been proposed in some massively stupid ways in North America (ie instead of a light rail system in austin) but if you can get max throughput of about 6k per hour each direction on one for much less of the cost of a bridge that's something I think would warrant some cursory analysis on.
I'm just genuinely curious if it's been looked at, and if this is one of those rare circumstances it would work.
