New “U-Bahn” Serfaus: revolutionary 30 years ago, high tech today

Still a model example of efficient mobility, reducing individual transport in particularly sensitive, Alpine regions: Dorfbahn Serfaus, popularly known as the “U-Bahn”, is actually technically a funicular. LEITNER ropeways within the last two years has been working on a full overhaul including a complete technological “facelift” of the ropeway, which has been providing sustainable transport services in the heavily touristed Tyrolean village since 1986. The entire project including ropeway technology and architectural restyling has cost 26 Million Euros and has been inaugurated beginning of September.
