FOR MORE SELECTIONS - PLEASE SCROLL TO BOTTOM OF PAGE FOR HOME PAGE

  If ski lift equipment fails, the person in charge must evacuate passengers according to the evacuation plan. This document explains precisely how all the operations should be carried out and what human and material means must be employed.

The maximum projected time allowed for evacuating all passengers is 3.5 hours (from breakdown to evacuation of the last passenger). This time can be reduced and adapted to the situation according to the weather, the type of installation, etc. Evacuation of a ski lift requires specific techniques for movement along a cable. Generally composed of two people (one suspended on the cable for evacuation, the other on the ground to receive the passengers and to guide the movements of his colleague).
