The installation of the single-belt moving carpet at Boëtet addresses a major challenge: rationalizing the ski area and streamlining snow front connections. At Les Saisies, this modernization project involved replacing obsolete aerial cable lifts with high-capacity ground transport solutions.
By replacing the Boëtet drag lift, this new mountain moving carpet eliminates the technical constraints of attachment devices while increasing user safety.
The Boëtet moving carpet does more than transport skiers; it acts as a true logistical backbone at the heart of the resort. Technically, this installation enables:
- Managing a constant flow of approximately 1,500 people per hour.
- Eliminating operational interruptions due to frequent falls, which were systematic on the old drag lifts.
- Ensuring universal accessibility by transporting skiers of all levels as well as pedestrians.
To ensure optimal operation, the Boëtet moving carpet is protected by a FUNVISIO® gallery. This structural choice allows the skier moving carpet to remain functional regardless of weather conditions. Additionally, the protective gallery drastically reduces costs and time related to morning snow removal from the conveyor belt. For users, the FUNVISIO® gallery provides a sheltered journey, enhancing the resort's comfort image.
In a nutshell...
At the heart of the Les Saisies modernization project, the Boëtet moving carpet now structures circulation on the snow front. Paired with the Chardons moving carpet, this installation under protective gallery replaces the old drag lifts to streamline skier and pedestrian transport. An efficient and comfortable mobility axis.
