Rome, January 28, 2021 – The possible reopening of the ski resorts remains a topic of discussion while many Regions they are ready for a new one color change in the weekend. “With regard to the issue of ski resorts and other facilities closed today, the national provision needs to change, because there are protocols, new ones have also been drawn up, but at the moment you will not be able to open any facilities. If the curve goes down , I hope we can see some news as soon as possible “, said the president of Emilia Romagna and the Conference of Regions, Stefano Bonaccini, during a videoconference to present sporting events in the area.

He also spoke on the subject Giovanni Toti, Vice President of the Conference. “We have redefined and approved today our proposal for guidelines for ski resorts. In particular, the observations of the Scientific technical committee of last January 15th. Now we hope for a quick validation by the Government because the latest Dpcm foresees the reopening of the plants on next February 15th and it is necessary to give the managers the necessary time to organize themselves in the face of a season that has unfortunately already been compromised “, said the governor of Liguria who chaired today’s session.

“Obviously the text has a precise reference to the scenarios introduced in the last Dpcm, providing for the closure of the plants of the Regions in the red zone and a 50% quota opening for the Regions falling in the orange zone”, pointed out Toti. “For the chairlifts the maximum range is possible at 100% of the vehicle capacity but it is the use of the surgical mask is mandatory. This capacity is reduced to 50% if the chairlifts are used with the closing of the windbreak domes. For the gondola lifts there is a 50% reduction in the maximum capacity of the vehicle and the mandatory use of surgical masks. A similar limit is set for the cable cars for both the ascent and descent phases, always providing for the use of a surgical mask “, added the Ligurian president.
“In addition, we have added to the previous proposal the provision of a maximum salable daily skypass, also considering the weekly and seasonal passes with the aim of limiting the maximum number of daily presences on the ski fields “, continued Toti.” Further clarifications concern the measures to avoid the aggregation of people, for the management of flows in the districts larger ski resorts that extend beyond regional borders, with respect to which a close coordination of prevention measures between neighboring Regions is envisaged “.
In the front row to ask for the reopening of the lifts there are the Lombardy and the Veneto, but also the Market. “The Conference of Regions and Autonomous Provinces has updated and approved its proposal for guidelines for the safe reopening of ski resorts, taking into account the observations presented by the Technical Scientific Committee – says the Lombardy Mountain Councilor Massimo Sertori -. Now there are no longer any impediments. I hope for a timely validation of the guidelines by the Government “. The councilor for tourism of the Veneto Region, Federico Caner, echoes him. “The system of the ski resorts in the Marche is cornered by this situation. The Apennines demand particular attention and therefore we strongly ask that this proposal by the Regions can be assessed as appropriate”, writes the Regional Councilor for the Budget of Marche, Guido Castelli.
