Two Lifts Go, One Gets Longer and One Bigger At La Plagne

Two Lifts Go, One Gets Longer and One Bigger At La Plagne

Published : 22-Jun-2012 02:24



The vast resort of La Plagne in France, lift-linked to Les Arcs to form this giant Paradiski area – has announced a lift upgrade which should, they hope, relieve queue-build-ups on a busy route.

Work is focused on Plagne Centre which is being reorganised along its snow front where the resort meets the slopes. Firstly the Becion quad chairlift at will be replaced by a fast six-person lift which should increase speed and capacity on the route, which often gets crowded.

The new lift will be realigned meaning the nearby Biolley tow lift will be rerouted too.

In addition to the new lift, another chair, the Colorado, will be extended to start lower down the hill. This will in turn lead to the removal of two drag lifts made redundant by the changes 'Cadri' and 'Z'.

These lift realignment and removals are connected to work on the key Mont Saint Sauveur piste, which is being widened and a new nursery slopes area created.
