In the canton of Graubünden there is a great uprising of the mountain railways and their lovers of the slopes at the weekend!
The situation is really clear: the canton reluctantly accepted Bern’s motto that the terraces in the ski areas must be closed from Friday evening. Consequently, the Grisons regions have already been informed about the new applicable guidelines.
Beizers do what the mountain railways tell them to do
However, everything indicates that there will continue to be a rebellion on the edges of the Graubünden slopes. For example, at Munggä Hütta in the Parsenn ski area above Davos. Word quickly spread among skiers Thursday that the terrace should remain open there longer, regardless of the Federal Council’s decision. When asked by BLICK, the pub said they would leave it open until the mountain railways decide something else.
And so far there has been no closure order from there, as confirmed by Vidal Schertenleib (33) from the Davos Klosters Bergbahnen AG management. «The restaurant terraces will remain open until at least Sunday evening. This procedure has been agreed with the Graubünden mountain railway industry organization “.
“Nobody understands how that should help”
In fact, the Mountain Railways Association decided to continue this last weekend of the high season as before, with open terraces, tables and benches. “Therefore, we have informed the canton that the implementation of the required measures takes time in high season and cannot be done in one day,” says the president of the association, Martin Hug (51), to BLICK.
Hug justified this decision as follows: “The elaborately crafted concepts have been tested in recent weeks and are also top priority this final weekend of the sports holiday. And is that all to throw you overboard for what we consider to be a worse situation? “
Hug and the entire mountain rail industry hope that they can once again increase the pressure on politicians and make those responsible change direction. “No one here understands how closing the terraces should help contain the coronavirus.”
And the canton? In the responsible cantonal coronavirus communication office, they reaffirm that they regret the federal decision. But you won’t turn a blind eye. In a written response it is clear and simple: “The rules apply as of Friday night. And the responsible municipalities are obliged to enforce the decision with a sense of proportion. “
In Graubünden, the signs point to confrontation.
