01 Sep Another milestone on the way to the new 8SBK ASITZKOGELBAHN
In order to remain competitive at a high level in the future, the “Asitzmulde” area in Leogang is being upgraded in terms of ski technology. With the replacement of the existing 6-seater chairlift Asitzkogel 2000 by a new 8-seater chairlift, the demands of the guests are met in the best possible way. Thanks to well thought-out planning, the connection and return transport to Saalbach is improved at the same time.
We – the Melzer & Hopfner planning office – are responsible for the general planning of the entire cable car system, including the building planning. In addition, Melzer & Hopfner was entrusted with the coordination of the cable car approval process.
With the positive conclusion of the construction negotiations and the associated building permit, a decisive milestone has been reached on the way to the new ASITZKOGELBAHN.
The construction of the system is scheduled to take two years, with the majority of the foundation work in the valley station planned for 2020 and the remaining construction work as well as the installation and commissioning of the system in 2021.
