Leogang: Project 8 SBK Asitzkogelbahn To Go Ahead
In order to remain competitive at a high level in the future, the ski area “Asitzmulde” in Leogang is to be upgraded. With the replacement of the existing 6-seater Asitzkogel 2000 chairlift with a new 8-seater chairlift, the demands of the guests for winter and summer are optimally met. Thanks to well thought-out planning, the connection and return transport to Saalbach will be improved at the same time.
The planning office Melzer & Hopfner has taken on the general planning for the entire cable car system including the building planning for this construction project. In addition, Melzer & Hopfner was entrusted with the coordination of the cable car approval procedure.
With the positive conclusion of the building 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 planned to take two years, with a large part of the foundation work in the valley station in 2020 and the remaining construction work as well as the assembly and commissioning of the system in 2021.
