This winter the Lac-Intr\u00eats chairlift in Avoriaz<\/a> is being upgraded to a more efficient and faster model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First constructed in 1975 as a triple chairlift, the Lac-Intr\u00eats was upgraded to a four-person chair in 1986.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New 6-person chairlift<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This winter, that will be replaced by a new 21st<\/sup> century Leitner 6-person detachable chair, which uses \u2018Direct Drive\u2019 technology and will transport skiers at 6 metres per second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Improved sustainability<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The new lift reduces the amount of materials used in the design and the \u2018Direct Drive\u2019 system means that no oil will be required for the motor’s operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s anticipated that this will lead to an reduction of 5% in electrical consumption. In addition, waste heat from operating the lift will be recovered to heat the staff cabin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Route of lift will change<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The lift will start from the same point as the old lift, but the top station will be moved further to the Haut Forts sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means that the slightly scary quirk of the lift crossing and going underneath the Stade chairlift will end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
