A transport installation comprises a guide track and at least one car which moves on the track. A circulating cable is provided near the track and a gripping device on the car grips the cable. Lateral retaining members are fixed to the car and accommodate the cable at least when it is gripped by the gripping devices. There are at least two such lateral retaining members disposed on respective sides of the gripping device. They are adapted to hold the cable betweem them at least substantially in a vertical plane.
