- Annual inspection
Due to regular annual inspection, cable car will not operate from October 6th till October 26th.
Annual inspection and technical examination are determined by cable car manufacturer and they are mandatory by the law.
Annual inspection, which is significantly more complex than periodic monthly inspection, is usually carried out during this time of year due to the expected reduced number of users compared to summer and winter. It includes checks and examinations of all segments such as the drive system, inspection of ropes, towers, brake tests, checks of the main control circuit, and checks of all electronic circuits and sensors…
These are normal periodic activities to meet all technical and safety requirements for the continued safe and smooth operation of the cable car.
