Safety Codes Council - APEGA Representative - Passenger Ropeways Sub-Council (2025)

 

 

 

Zipping down a ski slope on a sheet of fresh snow is only half the trip to the bottom. Travelling safely up on a chairlift to reach the top again is the other half of the experience. This is just one of the areas that the Passenger Ropeways Sub-Council looks after. The Passenger Ropeways Sub-Council are responsible for meeting on a regular basis to discuss how to make ropeway transportation safer.
