“Opening on January 7 is a utopia. With such a compromised health situation, it makes no sense to think about reopening the plants. If the infection goes down, we can hypothesize an opening between January 20 and 30, not before ”. This was stated by Valeria Ghezzi, president of the national association of cable car operators, regarding the start of the ski season. “Now we must aim to have a protocol, which is firm in the CTS, then we will think about identifying a specific date for the reopening,” he added.
“What is finally needed is the protocol that we have been waiting for months. There are 16 days left until January 7 and the confinement has lasted weeks. We are still waiting for January 7, also because we cannot start immediately but we have to run,” he explained the vice president of Anef Alto Adige, Elmar Pichler Rolle.
During the day, the governor of South Tyrol, Arno Kompatscher, also expressed his opinion on the reopening. “We are working to define precise rules to regulate the influx of people in the cabins and shelters and therefore also to open the lifts in a safe way,” he said in a thematic press video conference. The start date of the season, also at the local level was discussed after the Epiphany – it does not appear in any case in the new provincial ordinance, which in South Tyrol will be in force between December 24 and January 6. “At the beginning of January, large numbers of tourists will not arrive, also because there will be travel restrictions both nationally and internationally,” Kompatscher added.
