POMA installations in the world Press Kit Press Press contact: Alexandre Bérard - Tel.: +33 (0)4 76 12 01 33 Mobile: +33 (0)6 08 61 36 97 - [email protected] 5 Business sectors and expertise Snow POMA has been a pioneer in cable transportation solutions since 1936. The inventor of the fixed-grip surface lift and the first detachable grip has been providing skiers and mountain lovers with smooth and sustainable mobility in the heart of the snowy mountains for over 80 years. From the Vanoise Express in the Alps to the slopes in Russia for the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games, POMA climbs mountain ranges with high-performance, fast, silent and ecological aerial ropeways. POMA invents installations with clean lines that blend into the environment, and innovative carriers that are comfortable and accessible to all with panoramic views to take full advantage of the natural surroundings. Urban Whether you need to connect an island to a megalopolis, travel on an air cushion between airport terminals, connect suburban districts to the city centre, fly over a river, ascend to the top of a mountain, or replace a road, bus line or ferry... POMA sets cable transportation as the new means of public transportation and reduces the impact of transportation on the environment. In the heart of the urban jungle, from New York City to Rio de Janeiro, POMA innovates and installs customised, eco-efficient solutions providing smooth, sustainable mobility. Tourism User-friendly, fun, original and spectacular: POMA installations bring tourism to a new level. POMA meets every challenges and imagines the solutions: visit a natural park in an ecological funicular railway, experience indoor skiing surrounded by desert in Dubai, take a ride in a recreational park, connect a city to a leisure area, connect an island resort by gondola, and discover London from a capsule on the London Eye. In 2014, POMA installs the cabins for the tallest observation wheel in the world in Las Vegas. The big wheel, called the “High Roller” is 550 feet (168 meters) high. POMA stations and carriers have that rare capacity to blend into the environment and surrounding architecture. They are entirely adaptable and can be configured to meet the specific requirements of each project.

New technology research centres, large-scale engineering structures, gold and mineral mines and some of the most impressive hydro-electric dams in the world take full advantage of our technology that withstands some of the most extreme conditions in the world. MiniMetro® Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami, Frankfurt, Perugia, Zurich, and Cairo have already chosen comfortable and reliable transportation with a very low environmental impact. Bringing our several decades of experience in the cable transportation industry, we at POMA have become the world-wide leader in urban cable transportation thanks to our MiniMetro® system. The POMA MiniMetro® at the Cairo International Airport revolutionises the world of transportation through the carrier’s air cushion technology, also known as Air Levitation Technology. This innovative system has proven to be one of the best solutions in smooth mobility. Our technology makes it possible for the carrier to slide along the track with almost no friction, thus reducing energy consumption during the trip. Fewer vibrations and reduced noise ensure optimal comfort for passengers. Entertainment The POMA Group is a shining star in the entertainment sector. Our secret recipe? Mixing passion and innovation to provide passengers with thrilling sensations. In London, thanks to our close collaboration with our subsidiaries, the POMA Group met a new challenge: the creation and installation of the oval capsules for the London Eye, the Great Wheel created for the transition to the Year 2000. The 32 capsules are equipped with air-conditioning, and can hold up to 25 passengers for a ride aboard the most famous tourist attraction in Great Britain. In Las Vegas, the POMA Group met another incredible challenge: designing, manufacturing and installing the cabins for the world’s largest Great Wheel. Reaching 168 meters high, the High Roller has become the main attraction of the City of Lights. The POMA Group, and our exceptionally

  • Ropeway People Movers for Ski Resorts
    Ropeway People Movers for Ski Resorts by Andrew S. Jakes* Abstract Las Vegas, Reno, Sun City, Foxwoods, Tunica, Broad Beach, and several other international mega-resorts, have discovered that People Movers (Automated Guideway Transit) improve their image and subsequently attract new customers. In addition to presenting the rope-propelled People Mover technologies, this paper reviews how specific installations have solved visitor circulation needs in many hotel resort complexes in Las Vegas and elsewhere. This approach can be duplicated to many ski resorts worldwide since the level of ridership in Las Vegas frequently exceeds levels typically found on ski resort shuttle bus systems worldwide. We particularly focus on existing, proven technologies and specific installations, including ropeway Horizontal Elevators (Mandalay Bay, Mirage, Primadonna, and Circus-Circus Automated People Mover installations). People Mover systems represent major changes and advances in equipment, facilities, operations, and services in comparison with conventional rail, bus, taxi, and other street modes. System performance and capacities can be tailored to match expected loads and a broad range of performance and operational requirements. Suppliers usually claim, with justification, that they can adapt their product to buyer's specific needs. Vehicle size can be expanded or reduced. Seats can be added or removed from vehicles. Various grades and curves can be accommodated by altering guideway design and speeds. Riding the circulation People Mover system can be as convenient, safe and comfortable as riding a modern elevator. Stations can be sufficiently numerous to provide development-wide access. Passengers experience little or no waiting for vehicles. The operation can be environmentally friendly with no emissions, very little noise and minimum visual impacts.

  • New Additions in Colorado Ski Country Winter 2019-20 Investment, Enhancement and Transformation Continue
    New Additions in Colorado Ski Country Winter 2019-20 Investment, Enhancement and Transformation Continue Colorado Ski Country USA member ski areas are in the midst of a transformative period of investment over the last two years. Since 2018, Colorado ski areas small, medium and large have added 11 new chairlifts to whisk skiers and riders up the mountain more quickly and efficiently, four new lodging offerings, 10 new dining options and other facility and program upgrades. New Lifts and New Terrain • Cooper will have a new lift on the east-facing slopes and new terrain. The Way Back lift will serve 70 acres of new, mostly double black diamond gladed or tree skiing including 5 new runs. • Copper Mountain will welcome 273 acres of expert terrain on Tucker Mountain with the new Three Bears chairlift, which tops out at 12,421 ft. This three-person fixed grip lift will access terrain that was previously accessible via snowcat or hiking only. The lift will come complete with a ski patrol warming hut at the summit and bathrooms at the base. • Winter Park Resort’s new 6-person Sunnyside chair will replace the original 3-person fixed grip chair. The $6 million upgrade will reduce the ride time from eight minutes to under four. This will greatly reduce lift lines at this popular resort location. • Steamboat Resort is replacing the gondola after over 30 years. This will increase capacity by nearly 40 percent, reducing ride time from 12 minutes to 10 and increasing guest ease with gondola cabins flush to the ground allowing riders to walk straight on as opposed to stepping up into the cabin.

  • Metrocable in Medellin, Colombia
    The Medellin Project in Colombia Philippe Adrien Export Director Pomagalski SA Page – 13.1 Abstract: The Medellin Project in Colombia Philippe Adrien1) The municipal council of Medellin has chosen the gondola lift solution to connect the hillside district of Santo Domingo to the city's overground metro network. The MetroCable project, as it is called, is jointly funded by the city and the mass transit company, Metro Medellin. The system is an ARIANA 8-10 gondola lift from the SATELLIT range, equipped with aluminum DIAMOND gondolas made by SIGMA. The line is scheduled to run 18 hours/day, all year round. It is 2 km long, with a vertical rise of 400 meters, three sections and four terminals, including two intermediate stations, the first of which includes a 15° turn. Ground on which the lift is built calls for extremely deep anchoring for the single-shaft towers, each of which rests on four piles, with a diameter of 2 m, driven down to a depth of 8 meters. 1 Export Director, Pomagalski SA, 109 rue Aristide Beregs, BP 47, Voreppe Cedex, F-38341, 33 4 7628 7146, Fax 33 6 7399 5702, [email protected] Page – 13.2 A New Application of the Aerial Ropeway Transportation Technology METROCABLE in MEDELLIN - COLOMBIA Philippe ADRIEN1 A.

  • NSAA Ski Lift Safety Fact Sheet
    CONTACT: Adrienne Saia Isaac Director of Marketing & Communications [email protected] (720) 963-4217 office UPDATED: December 2018 NSAA Ski Lift Safety Fact Sheet In the 2017/18 season, ski lifts and aerial tramways transported a total of 53.3 million skiers a total of 200 million miles. The last guest fatality resulting from a mechanical malfunction of a ski lift occurred in the 2016/17 season. Since 2004, there have been three fatalities resulting from falls from chairlifts unrelated to mechanical malfunctions. A passenger is five times more likely to suffer a fatality riding an elevator than a ski lift, and more than eight times more likely to suffer a fatality riding in a car than on a ski lift. Lift maintenance, safety and operation is governed by ANSI B77 and regulated in many states by a state agency. Overview Aerial ropeways (including lifts, trams, and gondolas) remain one of the safest methods of transportation. Ski areas across the United States are committed to lift safety and have an excellent safety record for uphill transportation as a result of this commitment. There is no other transportation system that is as safely operated, with so few injuries and fatalities, as the uphill transportation provided by chairlifts at ski resorts in the United States. Methodology & Terms NSAA compiles lift incident information and updates this Ski Lift Safety Fact Sheet annually to provide ski areas and the public with the most current information on the ski industry’s commitment to overall lift safety, financial investment in lifts and lift maintenance, industry education and training on lifts, and frequently asked questions about chairlifts.
