Season 2011/2012 in Cervinia, a new panoramic cable car for Plateau Rosà
The new cable car to Plateau Rosa, which will operate in conjunction with the new 2011/12 winter season will be a real technological gem. Allow the rapid movement of 1,450 meters up to 3,500 people/hour to the Plateau Rosà, where the slope "ventina" began his long run of 11 km to the center of Breuil-Cervinia, in a blaze of racy, and engaging walls sudden elevation changes.
The new cable car has its design that, besides giving a sleek, you can make the best use of the windows, whose amplitude can enjoy the view (the Matterhorn is there, it almost seems to touch with hand) during the ascent (or descent, for those who do not ski in the winter).
The two cabins, elegant shapes, were made ​​by the company Carvatech, a company known in the field of cable installations for close collaboration with leading names in design, including Giugiaro, Storz, Spirit DFesign and Kiska.
The large windows that wrap around the circumference of the cabins'intera appear as a terrace projected in a vacuum: the feeling that the designers wanted to convey the work is to transport passengers on a journey "inside" the heart of the Alps, planar Breuil first flight on the land at Plateau Rosa ... and look at himself in a world of ice. And do not miss anything during the trip, a few minutes, the Plateau Cime Bianche Laghi, have also been provided comfortable bucket seats along the walls of cars, thereby making the "journey" more comfortable.
Speaking of comfort, passengers can access weather information, runways or any promotions in real time through the vision of proper HD monitor that complement the interior design. Also on the way a video camera installed in each booth will be able to project on screens inside the car pictures of the valley below the Matterhorn.
The new cable car to Plateau Rosa, therefore, changes the approach to the classical vision of "new plant" designed to optimize the rise time. More views and become more comfortable defining elements of a future that, in Breuil, is already a reality: un''altra beautiful story of great skiing, which began back in 1939 with the inauguration of the first cable car to Plateau Rosa.
Work on the replacement are now nell''ultima phase: during the summer of 2010 were made the first technical portions of the overall review of the plant, was completed in the spring 2011è replacing electromechanical and electronic equipment, from 29 Autumn in August with a stop will replace the existing cars with new vehicles with panoramic views.
