Bruson lift gets the go ahead…

October 08, 2012 | By tom18a

So, news just in is that Bruson goes ahead and work starts this week. Honestly.

The lift is going to get you from Verbier (Medran), down to Chable and up to the midstation at Bruson in less that 20 minutes – which is usually the time it takes to leave Medran and get on the bus if you’re heading to Bruson via Le Chable at the moment…

There’s a link to a little video (in French) by Canal 9 below – watch it even if you don’t speak french, the pictures are nice.

But it give us a little idea of what’s coming and what it’ll look like. According to the report building work starts today, and completion is for December 2013. And this time they mean it.

If you’ve never skied Bruson then frankly you haven’t lived, you can check out this post from a massive powder day last year…

We’ll get up there soon and have a look to see exactly what the work entails but any movement on this one is good movement…
